doubt any better protection from humidity if you use the little blanket cover.
I prefer the smaller size of the calton
Pro for using armrest, no more holes in the sleeve of my shirts from the tailpiece.
The new Master Model I played at SPBGMA makes me vote yes. It was really nice, sounded great and played smooth as butter.
Plug your headphones into the smart phone and record that way. I will try the airplane mode and see if its any better.
I lock, but found it better to use 3 fingers of slack halfway on the fret board. This allows at least 1 full loop around the string post and I tend to play more than I tune.
Yes!
But make sure to get a good 1, the kind I had seemed to always breaktime....:disbelief:
I played one years ago and really liked it. A guy at work was selling it and I really wanted it but just didn't have the $ at the time, other wise it would have been mine. Funny that I still think...
I prefer Lynn Dudenbostel's arm rest.
My 5 year old son has a mandolin in his room. He is very careful with it and always wants to take it out of the case and clean it. My little girl is 4 and has a guitar out leaning against the wall...
If I had 1500 - 2k for my only mandolin I would be searching for a Collings A or Flatiron F on the used market.
I have a Bailey strap and really like it. Just ordered a Sully "new 02" F5 strap will let you know when it comes in.
Yes, AT4040 and Sure KSM 27
Does the top of the mandolin sink some when getting to dry?
Good one off festivals

Believe Charley's has/had a friend of mines Monroe F5.
Let me know if/when you head that way, might come pick a tune or 2 with...
any close up shots of the dark F5, far right on the table?
We don't watch the news!
Love the café, pick on
I'm grass so looking like 1 out of 18
While the Waverly tuners are very nice, believe you would still need to check the screws ever so often. I thought about getting a years ago when my mandolin wouldn't stay in tune. Then I discovered...
Like the common cold, there is no cure for MAS.
I would like to blame this thread for the recent purchase of; Givens A model and Gibson F5 Steffey model.
I just had MAS, this photo might make me fall of the wagon AGAIN!
Just last week I was thinking back on what fun the thread/journey was when Demetrius went on the hunt for the Gil/Givens, believe he ended up with both?
Fifteen-ish years ago (were getting old)...
