Easiest was a Kimble , with a Taggart close behind .
Two years of my misspent youth I was stationed in northern Italy about 45 minutes north west of Venice . It was there I saw that the instrument was for more than Bluegrass .
Check mout Reno's Music at Castleton . It is north of 116th street just west of I- 69 they have Weberscurrently in stock . I know they are in justy not out on display.
Try Thorntown it is set up as a jam . They mostly play bluegrass , some country and gospel . Take I - 65 north to state road 47 turn left and approximately a mile west of town on the right is the...
Shouldn't be a problem as long as the leather is vegetable tanned ,meaning none of the harsh chemicals are used .
The first jam session I attended a violin teacher had several of her students attend it . She played violin and carried her cello in and plucked it like a slap bass . It was different but enjoyable .
I have seen the Kaufman book and had a copy of the guitar version . I am still working on ear training which for me is hit or miss , somedays on somedays off . He is a former guitar player maybe if I...
mounmon , he would like the melody lines . I was hoping I wouldn't have to sit down with pencil and paper to create a file for him.
Alan , that was about the first song I learned on the cornet ....
The problem is a friend needs tabs for hymns to join in at church . We play the old hymns and he has tried but can't master notation . Does anyone know of a site that has the old time hymns in tab...
I agree with you Bradley my wife gives me fits because of my disdain for the 7 - 11 (seven words repeated 11 times ) songs . My church is currently trying to incorporate them in our services. It is...
Sounds to me like it is a custom made cushion . My advice is to check with a custom sewing room , that way you get the needed size.
I bought one about 2 years ago paid the same price and it came with a tkl case . Been happy with it mine sounds a litle thin on the treble end especialy when I use heavy picks on it . Never have...
Being a por boy have gone that route . Don't believe it look in my mando case , you will find Fender heavys , Golden Gates , Dunlop Delrin in 1.5 and 2 mm , ultex in .6 ,.74 , 1.0 , 1.14 tear drop...
Pick style doesn't affect me too much . I almost always used ultex 1.14 pick preferred the triangles . Then one day while tremoloing I noticed that the pointed pick was at a 45 degree angle to...
When using a Golden Gate pick that I modified , I have noticed the treble sounds weak and tinny. It has been suggested that I try a heavier gauge set . I am currently using J 74s . The Black Diamond...
Mr. Jennings you don't know how close to the truth your joke is.
I live in Indiana and have played old time gospel on mando at my church and received many compliments . The only time it was a bomb was when I played " Just a Closer Walk " using the version found in...
Must have a good wife she signed me up for the workshop and called it my Christmas , last Spring she signed me up for lessons this is after she let me upgrade my mandolin . Am I blessed or just lucky...
A quick way to go from " G chop chord " to " C chord " is to raise the pinky off the fret board then move the remaining fingers up one string and play just the top three strings . Still looking for a...
Been there my first one was a plywood Hohner without truss rod and when I finally could afford to upgrade I hunted and finaly found a Fender "Baby Strat " ( my nick - name for it } with truss rod and...
Right now I am using the Ultex 1.14 and for strumming use a modified Golden Gate . These seem to work best for me.
Can anyone give me a review on Bluegrass up the Neck ? Does it have pointers on improvisation ?
Been playing a little over two years and have about eight months of lessons . Good Lord willing may be ready for the local bluegrass gospel fest in July . Not performing just want to jam to maximize...
Should see some of the looks I have gotten, when the case is opened and they see a Fender baby strat as I call it . In defense of grassers they have always been helpful with tips on playing .
For the last six months I fooled around with my son's Sigma guitar and though I couldn't play chords was figuring out single notes pretty well. The down side is he has now moved on with his life and...
