Danke, Markus. Mein Deutsch ist Scheiße, weil ich es seit meinem Leben in München im Jahr 2000 nicht mehr benutzt habe ... 3 Jahre bevor ich anfing Mandoline zu lernen :)
haha... that looks...

The pandemic gave me the time to finally put out this record... love playing with these boys... Will be out on all the streaming sites in a few days so do not buy it :)

Haha... I'm a lurker...
Thanks all!
Sure, Scott... I'm in.
Nope... the Duff is getting new frets. That's the Kimble.
Fun show last night...

'Twas. Not shockingly, I kept it orange when I repainted ;)
Thanks for the kind words all. There's a few more vids on "The Tube". Fun cut of Southern Flavor too...
...
Lulz. Yes, my house is also orange :) It's not why I bought... I swear!
A few vids from a new project...

Brian Ray - mandolin (Duff)
Starr Moss - guitar
Ben Sanders - fiddle
Thanks all. Way too kind.
Yeah, winter in WI is perfect for recording a record :) We'll see if Starr and I can work that out.
@usqebach, yup, that's my orange Kimble 2-point. It's kind of...
My buddy Starr and I are working on a new project. Here's a little video from a rehearsal we had this weekend.

I play in a duet, just mando and fiddle... so I can speak to this. As you've discovered, when playing in a duet, a chop doesn't cut it. I suggest to start listening to other instruments... guitar,...
Also, I have a bunch of recordings of my old Duff on my youtube channel. It's also the only mando I used on my CD, Mrs Maxwell.
Here's the old Duff in action with some of them wacky Blue Grass...
Hey Olaf,
Paul retooled in late 2006... after taking calipers to Mike Compton's Gil, which is one hell of a mando. He then brought one of the new ones over to the States and had a bunch of folks...
Mike, there is definitely a difference between an A and F... but I can't really define it in words either. I also find it hard to tell them apart on recordings... which some would argue makes them...
My original orange duff (2007) has a wider nut (1 3/16th I think?) and radiused board. I've since gravitated toward thinner neck and flat board. The new one has Waverlys (which I love). The old Duff,...
Old Ebenezer on the new Duff...

I'm not sure why Sting's female relations are seen as cool and Monroe's blasphemous... but whatever.
Dick Smith's book is trash. If you like that sort of thing, great; he wrote it for you. While...
This is now my favorite thread on the 'Cafe. Or at least one I can understand. Though I am writing this from my PC.... DON'T LOOK AT MY LOGS... I'm hideous!

Not sure if this is old news or not but I suppose it can't hurt if the horse is already dead...
I'm a fan of Rhys Jones and I'd caught his band "Bigfoot" while up in MN. Come to find out they've...
Extreme sadness: Garry Harrison died in his sleep Monday night at the age of 58. He was a midwestern old-time treasure. His music and influence will be sorely missed.

I'm a Monroe-style mandolin player... so keep that in mind...
I've found at least a modicum of value from almost every instructional DVD/Book/etc... I've encountered... but the Bill Monroe DVD...
