Yes I can read thank you. Trouble is, it wasn’t really a question was it, it was more of a demand. Anyway, tired of responding to such a rude person.

The trouble was it was neither a simple question, nor one that most of us could answer. We didn’t understand the question because, like the chap who DID answer the question how you wanted, the thing...
Are you sure? Surely a left hand mandolin still has the lowest string at the bottom of the instrument (nearest the floor)? This corresponds with mandolin Tab regardless of whether the player is right...
Hey Lord of the Badgers on this forum knows Rex, if it was him playing, and even bought Rex’s old Phil Davidson mandolin. Wonder if this was recorded on that instrument Badger?

My god, that is ugly !
Just had a look at your website. Lovely looking instruments. Any sound clips?

Has an air of Piazzolla about it. Enjoyed that!
What a shame- I know what it’s like to lose instruments, even if this one never actually made it into your possession. Alas, to expensive for me, but I am sure someone is going to get a very fine...
Thank you everyone for the lovely comments. Must admit I am only familiar with the 4/4 version of this tune. I first came across it years and years ago on a quite new agey album with hammered...
Well that went well, the link didn’t show ��
I’m trying to post this- any ideas?

This is a mixture of parts written by myself and the excellent arrangement by Evelyn Tiffany痴 Castiglioni. The mandolin parts are played on a lovely Phil Davidson Celtic mandolin, whilst the...
Best amp I’ve ever owned is an Acus One 8. Preferred it far more than an AER compact 60.

Well, I recently acquired a very nice Eastman MD504 that I am very impressed with. I would agree that Eastmans can vary a lot in sound. I played another 504 in a different shop that wasn’t half as...
Woops , you may find the banjo capo a little too short for bouzouk. I have used a g7th cut capo (5 string version) very successfully. It痴 designed to cover 5 strings of a guitar, but of course works...
Well I have just got an Eastman 504 that is simply beautiful. It is currently in the classifieds at not much more than your budget. Long story why I am selling it, but it is literally a week old!

Just bought one of these. It is brilliant! I enjoy playing this far more than the Weber Yellowstone I once owned, and far easier to play. Now that Weber have regrettably decided not to make any...
You should also check out Hawk plectrums in the UK. Similar material I believe but much cheaper (around 」12). I got them to make something along the lines of the SB signature model, but with grip...
Thanks for the comments chaps.
Interesting about the harmony- I hope I haven’t been too cavalier with my interpretation!
My partner has a Phil Davidson archtop, and very fine it is too. I prefer playing it to my own Old Wave. I have met Phil several times now, and he is a splendid bloke who will build you a very very...
his tune is just so joyous, I knew I had to arrange it the minute I heard it. By the late Highland piper Gordon Duncan. I recently met a piper busking in Bath who says he is great friends with...
That is one helluva beautiful photo Eoin. For those interested, Eoin’s shot is taken from the other side of the coast from my footage. A lot sunnier as well than Boxing Day when mine was taken. ...
