So glad to hear you were able to upgrade. My GME-4 is also weak on the e string.
Which model did you get? How difficult is the installation? Soldering involved?
Thx!
I'll be in the SW Jersey, Wilmington, DE, Philly area through August. I'm looking for jams or picker's! Any suggestions? Thanks!
There is a very good jam session at Fox Lake Park near Titusville every Saturday. Google it for the time.
Rskibo, welcome to Florida! There is a jam session every Saturday at Fox Lake Park, near Titusville, about 45 minutes north of Merritt Island. Been there several times, but a bit far for me from...
Thanks, folks. So we know it's Nashville build. Any thoughts on the label mystery? Any other Gibson or Flatty owners have a similar renumbering??

I am looking at a Gibson Flatiron Festival model. In the pic, you can see what appears to be an extra label over the serial number. Any ideas what this could be all about?

Bill, try the Jupiter lighthouse at 1:00 on Sunday's. Mostly old time, some bluegrass and Americana. I'll be the guy playing the June A5.
Thought I'd post my review of the newest member of my instrument family. About a month ago, I spent time with Walter Johnson maker of June Mandolins in his shop. Many of you are familiar with...
Walter finished my new mando! Simple but elegant, and now comes the hard part-waiting for it to arrive. It will be interesting to hear how it sounds now as compared to when I played it in the...
I looked at the pictures of #52 on Walter's Facebook page. It's a beauty! It will be interesting to see how his x-braced mandos open up. #17 (tone bars) rattles the windows with a deep dry tone...

My June #61, a bit further along. Walter says it should be readyearly next week. I was planning to drive back up (9 hr drive), but I've got a tropical storm headed this way, so I'm...
General, let's plan on getting together the next time I'm in Charleston. We get there every couple weeks. The attraction of grandkids just brings us back. Yes, I bought June #61. I'll be heading...
While visiting family in Charleston, I took the trek up to Campobello, SC, to visit with Walter Johnson and see and hear some of his work. I had played June #17, owned by a friend in South Florida,...
Thanks, so far. I've been to both the Folly Beach and Southern Bar jams. They're fine but I was looking for something more in a jam session setting. I may try Guy and Tina's. Never been there and...
We visit family quite often in CTown. Looking for good jams (or just pickers to play with). Traditional bluegrass, to Oldtime.
Thanks!
