barrangtan, I thought so too, but the headstock and fingerboard were bound. The label read just "A5", no signature.

It sounded great. Classic gibson tone, real punchy, big bottom end, and it had...

Today at a shop I played a 2008 Gibson A5, brand new, has been hanging on their wall since early 2009. It wasn't an A5-L, and didn't have back binding. But for some reason I thought there hadn't been...

haha, it's so funny that after all of the conjecture about the mythical d-log's super mysterious (or random, i read just the other day that it was from a property owned by susan sarandon) origins,...

a friend of mine had a KF Cascade (which i don't think they make anymore?) that was one of the loudest mandos i've ever heard and played in really well over several years. it was a booming, singing...

For 1k, I would say to go for something used. Nothing wrong with Kentucky or Eastman, but for that price you can find used Breedloves, which have a standard 1 3/16ths nut that will be good for you if...

I mean not just fans, like really good players:

Economies have scale......things are getting worse for some and better for others......Northfield appartently continues to get better...for the moment.....

this is the crux of the issue....

yeah, the classifieds have been drool-worthy this summer, and that mf-5 quilted maple is just yaaaaaaaaaaw. just stupid nice.

but that mt for 2100 is a steal too! it's hard to keep a trigger...

I know Telluride is a great time, but to me this was the fest of the summer. I remember when Floydfest was a tiny little community festival a few of my friends worked for free admission about 8 or 9...

Can anybody here comment on the evolution of the F9? I'm curious to know when and why it came about. Anyone here still own an older F9, like before the 2002 restyling? How's it playing nowadays?

Jesse's tone has never been the kind that Loar's are generally known for, and while I'm sure he wouldn't turn one down if you offered to give it to him, he has likely had his opportunities over the...
