It is spectacular.
Just speaking generally we live in a golden age of instrument manufacturing so there’s a very good chance that a cheap instrument would sound great. I have a few of them.
What a lovely instrument!
V picks make a really thick pick 8.5 mm. You don’t have to hold it so tightly. Pricey, but you only need one and if it solves your isssue, then I’d venture to suggest it’s worth it?
No...
Hi Jessica. https://www.mandolincafe.com/forum/threads/160892-Essay-on-Mandolin-Orchestras Might be helpful.
Good luck and let us know when it’s up.
Thanks! I had the privilege to interview Don on jethro burns a couple of years back. A lovely man, a great interview and a fount of knowledge. That’s a terrific interview!
Sam Bush's octave technique does this. You can sort of hear the 'click' of the muted strings, but that gives a bit more to the notes.
Wes Montgomery on guitar, likely where Sam evolved from did...
That’s a burning solo. That performance is extraordinary from everyone.
What type of emando is it?
It’s too rich for my blood but it beautiful.
Wishing him the best birthday from probably the worst student he ever had.
Given the popularity of MOs and MEs I suspect 3000 is not out of the question - I suspect a lot are under beds, in barns, in attics or given to local museums where they lie out back, undocumented,...

I’ve never used the classifieds. I have, in the past, bought merchandise. And will again in the future.
Do the classifieds work in Australia? If I was to sell something, are there Australian...
I love the mandolin on ‘ doubting my ethical and spiritual ritualistic practice.'
It’s certainly been played. I love the patina.
The f style oval hole is something isn’t it? Just beautiful.
As I understand it, a banjolin has four strings and a mandolin banjo has 8. So banjolin is fine, provided it’s used correctly.
You’re wrong. It has been that way since before YouTube. Granted it may not sound better, but it’s easier to get the rhyth,m right, particularly if you’re new to the form. Or if you’re out of...
If someone else said this, I apologise, but a jig is usually better sounded DUD DUD… so as always there's a valid exception…
I never met bill monroe. I’m not even sure he came to australia when I became aware of him and I was in America before I really knew who he was. Although I wasn’t anywhere near Nashville then. When I...
I don’t think it’s a Gibson, but I think, provided that line is a reflection, it’s one of those pancake? Mandolins, which the army offered. It’s too round for the Gibson, I think.

Also, I have two banjo capos, one for banjo and one for mandolin. They fit beautifully on mandolin.
