I have a Snark Supertight, it's a bit more accurate than the 4 for a fiver straight from China ones I used before, but it doesn't lock on to a string very well. If I want more accuracy I use the...

Nice one Martin, I do like the voice of your Vinaccia. Now if you just provide a source for Dancing Maidens, I'll be set.

Hmmm, I think I would find it hard not to start on a down stoke, and since I am going into tremolo and thus picking a lot quicker I think it would be ok. As to what a modern players in the Italian...

I have used Newtone for single sets, one for a Waldzither and the other a BB mandola.

That's a shame, I have brought Evelyn's arrangements into various groups I play with and they are always well received. We'll be playing a couple in Christmas shows, I am sure the audiences will...

Just to be a pedant I went to The Amazing Scale Finder at https://ianring.com/musictheory/scales/finder.php If I pressed the right buttons it's called 'Chromatic Hypophrygian'

Lovely work again Gary. No. 1 has just been torturing Pachabel's Canon, practicing for the Christmas show.

No problems, it's been worth wait, I listened to the tango afterwards and enjoyed both.

Sounds good in G

Should there be a link? Or is Brejeiro four minutes, thirty-three seconds long?

If the phone is too quiet on it's own you could always use a smart speaker or headphones, even if just in one ear. If all else fails you could put the phone on an empty box or tin to try to make it...

No problems, good luck with it.

I took the same view with an Ashbury AT-14 that I have just sold. It's a nice guitar with a good sound, especially in CGDA, but I found that after I had worked...

That's pretty cool, shame it's on the back a matching pick guard would be great.

Thomann also do the Harley Benton tenor https://www.thomann.de/gb/harley_benton_custom_line_clt_20s_nt_tenor.htm

I have a Greek Sakis mandola that I am happy with, I was playing it in a group last night. I have mine strung as an Octave but it was built to be CGDA. I think it was one of the cheaper models, and...

I have tried it, it does work, although I feel a pick is more versatile I will use a thumb pick if I am trying to get two lines out of the mandolin. I know one decent player who only uses a thumb...

I am not sure if they ship to the US, but Newtone will make up any set you want.

Thanks for that Caleb it was driving me up the wall trying to remember, and I used to play it too :mad:

FWIW I think the other two tunes are Welsh, the band didn't name them just the set.

They were excellent :)

Here's a taste

They got a very different audience in Cressing Temple Barns, almost as old as the barns themselves.

Eastwood seem to use 6 string pickups in at least some of their tenors. Rails style pickups are also commonly used.

Nigel Gatherer seems to run a few things : http://www.nigelgatherer.com/

Good bloke too.

There's a good ring to that Peter.

So what sort of mouthorgans do they use over in Ireland? I tried taking one to a session over here and was completely drowned out, I also struggled with big jumps on a chromatic and missing notes on...

I play tenor banjo, handy fighting the guitar wall in the community band.

That Hammertone looks like a match, thanks Jacob.
