Sorry all, I didn't know how to embed a video before but I figured it out

I have two octave mandolins from Weber.... one from 2007 (Bozeman) and one from 2016 (Bend). Both are incredible instruments. I would describe the 2007 as being a little louder and punchier...

Yes, I believe they stopped producing these around 2016, which is why I purchased mine right after I heard the news. It is a F-style 20-inch scale and I absolutely love it. As far as why they stopped...

I've tried a number of different strings on my '25 snakehead and really like the EXP 74s best on it.

Hello Hattie,

Probably the two best people for this job in they Seattle area are Gail Hester in Poulsbo and Gary Wagner in Burien. I’m currently having Gail repair a slight seam separation on my...

I took a few pictures.... this one kind of shows the cracks.

I was actually at that Guitar Center a few months ago and saw this mando. When I was there, it was not strung up so I didn't get to play it. It definately not just has the newer Nick Lucas fretboard...

Thank you everyone for your replies; interesting stuff!

You’re right; my mistake... it’s the Mandolin Archive that has it at 1924. 1925 it is!

Hello all, I recently purchased a pretty cool Gibson A Snakehead but have a question about FON/Serial Numbers. The FON is 11204A which, according to Spann’s, puts it at an early 1925. The serial...

I have a Gallatin F octave set up with average action and the bridge is not nearly set that high. I would have that looked at

I did! Looks like a nice one.

Very true! Especially true with these 80's Master Models.

Hi Sam, thank you for sharing about your KH-600; I now know there is at least one more out there! I'm also glad to hear that yours is holding up strong and still sounding good after 30 years. I am...

That's a nice looking KH-DAWG, 40bpm! Thanks for the pictures. Nice to see another one of these nice mandolas in western Washington!

Got it. I'm surprised the 1300 didn't sell. These Kentucky mandolas are the real deal.

Thanks Aehle. I'm jealous that you have both a 1300 and a KH-DAWG! What gauge strings work the best for you on them? Right now I have D'Addario EJ 76s on mine and they seem to be working good.

Thanks bluegrasser78! Yeah, I think a loar-style A-5 (but mandola sized) pick guard would look pretty good on it. This is my first mandola and I'm loving it.

Here's a link to a sound clip.

I recently purchased a super rare Kentucky KH-600 mandola that was made during the early 1980's and it sounds fantastic! I have never seen another one, however, and I was curious if anyone else has...

Arturo7, I agree with you that the cases are quite strong. I start out by grabbing the handle in the normal place, but after holding it for awhile it ends up slipping back anyways.

Thanks Tobin and Foldedpath. That could work, but because the case is so out of balance, the angle might have to be very steep to get the handle in the right position.

Hudmister, not a bad idea....
