    Re: Custom Design Picks (Ultem)

    I hadn't actually thought to. I didn't realize the Mike Marshall pick was PEI/ultem until just now.

    Custom Design Picks (Ultem)

    Hi all,

    I know of a few custom pick makers out there, but I'm looking specifically for ones that would be open/able to doing a one off production of a Ranieri style pick made from ultex/ultem.

    Dogal Mandocello Strings

    Hi all,

    Is there anyone that might know of stores in the Italian mainland that carry Dogal green tag strings for mandocello or liuto cantabile? I’ve been trying to track some down but they’re...

    Re: Pango / Afanti Factory

    Yes! It actually arrived Thursday (6.10). It shipped from the factory officially on 4.23, so all told it was 48 days in transit. It might end up being faster for you because most of my wait was due...

    We have liftoff! My ‘cello left the factory a week ago. I’m happy to see it finally in transit, but definitely biting my nails about customs and the lengthy shipping times. As is such with...

    I’ll be interested to see when you receive shipping information. Do you know if they’re finished yet?

    I’ve currently been waiting since mid February when I was told my instrument was done and...

    Re: Pango / Afanti Factory

    Update - Pango did eventually get back to me on 2/3. They’re shipping out my 10 string f-style mandocello this coming week (delayed due to the new year).

    For anyone following or considering...

    Pango / Afanti Factory

    Has anyone had any recent contact with the Pango or Afanti group or heard any news about them? I was speaking with someone about buying a mandolin up until the end of October, then radio silence ever...
  9. Transcriptions of Mandolin Performances

    Hey y'all at the cafe!

    I figure this is the best place to ask this, but I'm not sure what type of response I'll get.

    Basically, for a class this semester, I'll be writing a research paper on...

  11. Re: New Ann Arbor (area) Mandolin Orchestra

    I'd be very interested - I'm a student at the University for another year-ish.

    That being said...there's no School of Applied Guitar in the SMTD here. Unsure what you're talking about.

    Re: Frankenstein mandolin player

    Out of all of Sierra Hull's amazing abilities and technique...you boiled it down to her smile? Seems a bit of a lowball to me.

    Re: New looking for help

    Chord websites like UltimateGuitar should help you learn more current music! Also if you look, I believe there's a guy on YouTube who makes tutorials for Top-40s songs on mandolin

    What do you mean they don't sound right? As in they sound bad all the time, or just the context of a song?

    I guess I would have no issue waiting for them if we had at least SOME indication of the process. Unfortunately Eastman has the high ground here - there a is (presumably) a large market for cheap...

    Eastman Octave

    Has anyone gotten any updates on the Eastman Octave regarding supply? The only info I can find is that Elderly has ship date unknown and TMS has an estimate of Fall '17. I know a few people have...
  18. Re: Is there such a thing as new mandolin sale prices?

    Generally speaking, no.

    Mandolins are still a super niche market (compared to guitars) and aren't as subject to deals like that. For the highest end mandolins you're paying for what you get, no...
  19. Re: Flame Arabesque Sound Holes on Mandolin?

    I'm really intrigued by the idea! There isn't much mandolin innovation of this sort!

    I'm curious if it might mesh better with the aesthetic for an elongated scroll (a la Monteleone), with the...

    It definitely wasn't a bouzouki - my guess from what people have said thus far is the Smart mandola. it was definitely carved top with f holes and a reddish color. I'm still interested about his...

    Re: Memorization

    I think the WAY people memorize music varies vastly from person to person but I can attest, at least in my own experience that music gets easier to memorize across the board the more you play.

  25. Re: Why popular hit songs are rare in mandolin?

    My guess is that the two questions are pretty closely related.
