I’m stationed here here in Fort Lee Virginia . I’m trying find jams near me. Anyone know of any nearby jams or someone that might know?

Ah I can't wait to hear it. :)
There is one like it on eBay. "Carnatic mandolin"
nicely done. I always wanted t do something like this. how do you produce something like this? what programs do you use?
I am writing for my little group and I would love to know what this piece is. -Mel

The neck is bigger than I was used to but the fretboard is superb. When I say bigger I am not really sure how. It seems to fill the space that was empty before in other mandolins but in a supportive...
Ok i got. Im trying picks right now. String changes to follow later.
strings are on order... mandolin is pending shipment... alright what kind of picks are people using? please tell me you set up :)
Its been awhile. The passion and love still persist. I managed to get good enough on chopping chords to play with our dixie/New Orleans style band. Currently I am playing a recording king resonator...
Will do.. it might take awhile for it to arrive. Please remind me if I takes more than two weeks. :whistling:
Thank you for the fast reply and input. I guess it would be good to give the TI a shot. Where do you get the TI strings? The selection is limited here in the Japanese stores I know of.
Looks like I will finally be getting a used F model. I am seeing people saying things about TI strings.. flatwounds.. and what not... do Elixir strings not sound good with it? I don't really have a...
There was a F5 for sale in the classified recently. Sadly it sold by the time I saw it. If someone sees a used one for sale send me message.
there is a guy in the Social group: song a week... that uses one... sounds pretty darn good... could just be him though. you should check out some of his videos or ask him. I think they call him the...
I had a collings and I loved it. It was a very dynamic instrument. The volume really determined its sound. When you played it softly it had a sweet mellow sound and... when you pushed it it got...
I wish Dunlop would get with the program and start making picks specifically for mandolin. You would think with what we pay for picks that they would be on this site asking what kind of pick we...
I don't know if this is coming across as what I wanted to... I am not faithful to any pick. I like them all for their own qualities. I have easily spent 400-500 dollars in picks this last year, not...
Very true. I have seen those test where the experts failed to differentiate between the stradivarious and modern violins. But how often do we go by peoples opinions? When we talk about mandolins that...
I just bought 72 of them for 20 bucks... its going to take awhile for them to get to me and back to anyone... but if you have recording equipment, high end picks to compare, able to write decent...
I haven't bought either product but I found your last post very informative. I look forward to reading the review on this product. Thanks for taking the time to do this for the mandolin community.
Well said Markus.
There is also another aspect that will never allow this or other similar topics to ever come to a consensus. It's the inequality among humans. Among us ordinary people there are...
The ultex could also be a great pick. I only have the rounded 1.0 and I love the sound. I think a thicker would would sound better as the 1.0 seems to buckle at louder dynamics. I wish I had the...
I have bought many musical items from eBay. Expect to pay for new strings and a professional set up at the minimum. Don't assume something isn't wrong if it isn't listed or shown. Ask if there is top...
I am a collector of picks you might say. I am constantly buying any new pick I come across that I think might sound good. I just came across this one. A SUM41 Pick (tortex)- Upon further research I...
You will find that each one of those listed will work better in different circumstances. They are all great mandolins but all three sound different to my ears. The Gibson has a simple dark, mellow,...
