Roger that. Spookily similar.
I don't know... I think if you went to one of those AI sites and said "Create me a thread that will really rile 'em up on the Cafe Forum", they nailed it. Just harmless AI minus the 'I'.
I don't really think anything has changed. Kentucky's advertisements have touted "highly figured" wood as far back as I've seen. Those Japanese built "highly figured" models were the KM-1500 Master...
And we have an active Volunteer Police Force that as quite adept at making sure that "strict song structure" is observed.
Thanks Bertram. Always love getting a glimpse into the way your mind works!! :)
I don't know. The neck appears to have put on considerable weight... right there next to the Cinnabon.
Ever since the removal of the fretboard extension, mine's been confused.
Probably the same way Gibson got Lloyd to sign the new ones.

My feelings exactly. The clumsy, heavy handed tactics of the company 'suits' (including any leather-jacket clad pseudo ruffians) is what turned me away from any desire to support them.

Somewhat sad but very interesting story. Thanks.

Ahead of his time.
You won't be crucified. As said above, I know what you're getting at. I think most of us here do. But I would say this:
Compton is a very accomplished picker. He has devoted himself, his life...
What you say is true pheffernan but we have no way to know. No workable parameters here. The phrase "moderately priced mandolin" appears in the thread title. The post then refers to the mandolins in...
Without hearing it, I couldn't say for sure if it's a dog or not. But it sure ain't no DAWG. :disbelief:
Bart, George and Alex... I admire your optimism!
Interesting question but...
Seems it's not all that easy to get satisfying answers from Gibson about decisions they make regarding today's production. Uncovering the reasons for decisions made a...
Bottom of the page here, it does say "Glued in, Set Neck". I take that as differentiating between mortise and tenon neck joint vs dove tail. No mention of glue used.
