I spent some time in the Archive.org rabbit hole listening to some live recordings and found this Gem from Prescott Park in 2016. The source is from the soundboard and the sound quality and playing...
I’d love to see this A/Bed with a Tura. I have a Tura and like it very much. Only improvement for me would be more secure latches which this appears to have.
I would say DON'T pick closer to the bridge. That is typically going to give a harsher/ more brittle/staccato tone, atleast with an F-hole mandolin. To get a warmer/fatter/more smooth sound I'd try...
I'm actually tempted to add the pickup system. I have some quality preamps and nice mandolins with pickups in them so it wouldn't be my first choice, but nice to have the option and I do think it...
This is pretty typical for where you are at experience wise. It will come in time. Make sure you know the chords well to the song, of course. If you want to practice, get an app like Strum Machine...
He seems to post the setlists in advance on social media (FB/Instagram). I imagine you can contact him through those sites or through his website if you want to get in touch with him. I think in the...
While I don’t know if this is considered a traditional version, I quite like it

Quit lustin for my Duff, Bill.
So, I ran the Tone Dexter and Grace Bix through my Scarlett Interface and played around with 2 different mandolins with K and Ks. In my opinion the Tone Dexter has a much more natural sound than the...
I originally ordered it with the Carbon timber, then I went back to the basic. Now I just upgraded again. I did feel like I noticed a little difference in the video of the tone. I also think it does...
Thanks for the tips everyone! I do have a scarlet interface so will try running them through the scarlett to Garage band to hear what that signal sounds like.
Thanks. I guess I just need to stop being lazy and plug in my PA to test these out.
Everyone else seemed to understand my question just fine. You can save your rude responses for someone else. I am not talking about contact mics or SM57s or I would have asked about microphones. If...
Hey,
I have a few preamps. I test them at home sometimes by plugging them into the Fishman Loudbox Acoustic Amp. I suppose I could plug them into my PA speakers. When we gig, which is not all that...
I learned the Monroe version from Chis Henry. Good visualization of fingering here:

The risk is really only in the cost of shipping as they have a 30 day return policy.
This is the cutting edge of sales these days. When someone orders something you send them the more expensive item “by mistake”.
FYI lots of knowledgable women on this forum as well.
Yes Jarrod Walker is a hoss of a picker. Billy’s band is playing the biggest venues for a bluegrass band out there (ever?). I think much of the kudos goes to their sound man for helping bring quality...
Clinch Mountain Backstep is a great modal standard with lots of blue notes.
I agree that it is cool to hate on Wagon Wheel. I would never call it, but I don’t think it should be banned. When I was at Telluride in 2015 there were the no wagon wheel stickers and signs posted....
I would love to catch this show. Fortunately I will get to see a workshop on Mandolin Duos up at WinterGrass with Joe and Andrew Marlin. Should be prettyyy good. If I can get permission to record and...
Maybe it’s time to lay off going into every thread that contains the word Northfield and questioning or pointing out where they are made and what tier they are in as you seem ignorant on the issue....
Ya there is an instrument check if you aren’t staying at the hotel. I always stay there and can be between my room and any stage/workshop within a matter of minutes, so it’s no problem leaving it in...
