I use the Trinity System on my guitar and the Silver Bullet on my mandolin. I use Gail's method of mounting the mic, which works fine, but it does take a minute or two to put on/take off. We actually...

One mando and three guitars (soon to be two), but I am mainly a guitar player who plays some mandolin. I think I could easily grow old with my Passernig (still wish the neck was not so 'V' shaped).

I got a chance to see Sam and the boys the night before the Olathe show, here in Tulsa. They played a club downtown and, as usual, played an incredible set (over 2 hours). Wish Chris and Herb had...

I think Tom has a good point about the OP getting a Gibson, since he seems pretty traditional in his approach to Bluegrass music. That being said, I would definitely second the Passenigs as a great...

Something I found interesting when talking to Kym Warner (The Greencards mandolin/OM player) was that his OM was tuned like a guitar. It is an older Alison OM that felt really good and sounded very...

I talked to Buddy (e-mail) a number of times about him building me a mandolin and ended up getting something different. Great guy to deal with and very helpful. I would love to play one of his...

Another happy Passernig owner here. I received mine from SMG last August and it just keeps sounding better all the time. Probably more mandolin than I need, but every time I think I might sell it for...

I have checked his website and have not been able to find a phone #, anyone have it?

This may have been addressed, but any experience with these picks on acoustic guitar. I like my medium Tortis on mando, but prefer my Dunlop Ultex 1.0 (Rhino) on acoustic guitar. The Ultex has a...

We use The JBL Eon G2 15s and have had great luck with them, practically indestructable and sound great (plenty of bi-amped power on board, too). We just added a DBX Drive Rack PA and a JBL subwoofer...

I saw Blue Highway a few years ago with Mountain Heart the same night, both incredible bands with great energy. I have to agree that "Goodbye For Awhile" is an incredible song that defintiely can...

Yeah the Netherlands, not Sweden, brain ####.

I am a new Storbo-Flip owner and I really like it. Takes a little getting used to, but worth it.

Mike, I thought you wanted to get the far left bars to stop, as it is more fine tuned there. Seems...

Another one here who has gotten very prompt response to a number of questions/emails, as well as when I finally placed the order, half of which were custom picks. Quick shipping, too, especially from...

I will put my vote in for Stefan Passernig, out of Austin, Tx. Smokey Mountain Guitars is the only seller of Stefan's mandolins, I believe. Definitely worth a look. I have spoken with Ben Wilcox and...

I too have State Farm Homeowners insurance, but since I play out, I am considered a professional. All I needed to do was send them a list of all my gear, with value amounts, and they wrote a separate...

I was wondering abouot the 6 dB minimum boost on the SFX-01. That was kind of my target, not sure I would want that much as my minimum boost (would prefer 0 dB). Looks like a nice clean unit and...

I am guessing the Morley pedal may work better through my effects loop than my Erinie Ball Passive volume pedal, since the Morley is active, true? The MXR Boost/Line Driver looks interesting as well.

I like using the mic to boost the solos (hence the Beta 57), but sometimes there are situations where it would be nice not to have to do that. I have seen some power boost type pedals (Radial,...

I have a K & K pickup and usually play my solos into a microphone (Beta 57) to boost the volume, but sometimes I would like a stomp box to engage to get a clean few dBs boost, instead of stepping...

The 'V' neck is why I sold my MT. No hand or finger pain, just do not like 'V' necks - not comfortable for me. In fact, my Passernig has more of a 'V' than I thought it would - great mandolin, but I...

We have used the JBL Eon 15 G2s (latest model) for probably 5 years. They sound great and we have never had a lick of trouble with them.

I have tried the Ernie Ball passive volume pedal on my guitar equiped with a K & K Trinity sytem (essentialy a blend system with microphone added). I run the pickup to a Raven Labs PMB preamp and...

Good point about the sound man probably having little expeience mixing an acoustic band. You would think with all the inputs/signals they have to deal with with an electric band, that they could do a...

I got into this show and stuck with it because of the Clark Brothers. If you did not see all of their performances, then maybe you would not get it, but these guys do have it going on. The judges...
