That's some helpful information, John. Thank you!

I know this has been discussed ad nauseam over in the mandolin boards, and I suspect I’ll end up saving my pennies to commission a build, anyway, but just in case…are there any special considerations...

I believe Avi Avital plays a flattop mandolin. Regardless of how you define "complexity", I don't think there's any doubt he can make that thing sing.

Hi, gang. I have a question regarding a Flatiron 1-N that's for sale at a shop in Nashville and this seems like the thread in which to ask it.

The shop has a lefty (!!) with a bridge pickup and...

It still hasn't arrived at either of the bookstores that I know carry it here in Lexington. The guy at Barnes & Noble was a bit confused when he looked it up in their system and it told him the...

I've seen several threads on here discussing the merits of oval holes vs. f-holes, and which are more suited for which types of music, etc. If there is that much of a difference, why aren't there...

Whoops, my bad. Unfortunately, it feels really awkward for me to even hold a right-handed instrument as a right-hander, let alone attempt to play it that way.

When I first started learning an instrument, I played a righty guitar upside down. It didn't take me long to figure out some of the chords would be nigh impossible to form that way. I reckon that...

He's about an hour from me, so I may have to give a Silverangel A-style some serious consideration when the time comes.

If a person was in the market for a left-handed mandolin and was considering one of the larger builders (Breedlove, Weber, etc.), does anyone know if it would be better to work through a dealer or...

I had a dream last night I was at a concert in a very small theater. I don't know who was performing, but during a brief intermission Grisman showed up. He was going to perform with them when I woke...

That's what I've been wondering since I started reading up on the 'higher end' mandolins and through all these threads (this is a great website)...how does a person manage to swing a $(three-or-four...

There's a sticker on the inside of my MK that says it was 'carefully crafted in Korea', but 'designed and inspected in USA'. It's the only mandolin I've ever had so I don't know any better, but it...

Man, the stuff you learn on these message boards...thanks!

I've been meaning to attend this thing for the past two years, but alas, have not made it yet. There's always next year...

I'm a long-time lurker who's decided to finally start posting on these boards. #I play a left-handed Michael Kelly Legacy Plus that I got this past Christmas. #I guess better late than never, right?

Yeah, I know I'm behind on this one, but that is one nice looking mandolin. I really like those inlays.

That's sharp!

I don't know if this is old information, but this was in the Owensboro paper today.

My wife and I will also be at that show, and we really like visiting Asheville. Other than suggesting the exploreasheville.com site, we can recommend the following:
