    Still isn’t there a better way of preventing counterfeits? A line through forever doesn’t seem right.

    Re: Stringjoy

    Yeah I never had a problem with my EJ74s. I suppose string (and pick) experimentation is a minor form of g.a.s. I did just read something interesting on another forum. Someone paraphrased Tommy...

    Re: Yet Another CF Mandolin?

    A thought just occurred to me. Why hasn’t the venerable carbon fiber guitar maker Rainsong gotten into mandolins? Perhaps the numbers just ain’t there? For the record I have a Mix A5, one of the...

    1/4 inch bluetooth transmitter to any speaker?

    Is there a 1/4” bluetooth transmitter that I can plug into an instrument and then connect to any generic bluetooth speaker?

    I searched and found transmitter/receiver pairs but obviously this...
  16. Re: John McGann transcriptions - Billie's Bounce and St. Thomas

    Does Musescore export to mp3? I think you can upload mp3s to the ‘Cafe.
  17. Re: John McGann transcriptions - Billie's Bounce and St. Thomas

    Mind? That’s awesome. I too prefer standard but back then I couldn’t read. I will try these lines on guitar and if I get some time analyze the note choices.

    Thanks!

    Re: Chopping on the Off Beat

    100%. Take it a step further and play to a drum machine where you can control tempo and volume. A 2/4 typical country groove works great for this. If you set the volume to match your mandolin you...
