I bought this a couple of years ago and need one for my Givens, but for the life of me can’t remember the maker!

;)

I think it is hard to go by the descriptions, at least in my case it is. My label says performer series, the headstock says Festival, so it is a festival in the performer series. the adds and...

I dont know what I was thinking. Yes a festival. I don't know why I was thinking performer. I am having more senior moments every day!
The main thing is it sounds great! An older gentleman gigged...

This beauty, is heavily played, no damage really at all is a 1989 model. It is suposed to be a performer, and is not signed by anyone. I think the inlay on the headstock is a little elaborate for a...

Yes sir!

I really have trouble working around the Capo. i suppose I could just transpose the song to the key of A flat and learn the chords. just so short on time.

I have been asked to play "In the Garden" in A Flat. WItht the guitar I would just capo one and play in G. Does that work on the Madolin? Also would rather not capo a mandolin. I don't know if I...

I have a new Collings MF. I was told I shouldn't store it with the leather strap on it. Kind of a hassel taking it off each time. I don't see where it would hurt. High quality leather stripa and...

I had one winder for mandolin, more like for waverly thinner knobs. I just bought a Collings MF and the knobs are too fat for my smaller (easier to turn between knobs) winder. The guitar winders...

I never thought of this, and I agree about the Collings tail piece. Took my almost two sets of strings to string it the first time! Use a Capo. Genius. I thank you!.

The whole thing is set against the seller, I am bitter. If you are the seller you have no recourse. They will access your bank account and credit cards,they don't need your permission, your using...

Heres my .02. I have bought numerous hats over the years, mostly to support the site, and they look cool, but they are all too small for my head. I have never been able to wear one. There are...

I was looking at the few issues I have and wondered if there was any place to buy back issues or order them online? They were great resources. I would appreciate your direction.

+1 I have a 95 Bozeman A5-L and a 94 Bozeman Flatiron performer and love them both. The only thing better that I have owned is an Ellis F5 and I intend to get an Ellis A5 as soon as I can afford...

Does anyone have any of the old GGDDAAEE stickers? I can't find them anywhere and they compliment all the other Mandolin Cafe stickers!

I just found the mandolin I have been looking for, a 1995 Bozeman A5-L. It looks like it is signed by a Larry and then a squiggle. Any Idea who that signer might be?

Thanks guys! I should be there in a week or so and will check it out!

While still in the formative stages of my mandolin progression, I would agree that the pick does make a difference. While a great player can use a quarter for a pick and make it sound great, the...

Well, after 6 months of unemployment, I am going to be working in Sacramento. Any recommendations for jams, places to hang out with other bluegrassers?

I am in town only a couple of days, any good mandolin shops?

When I first started playing I bought a 75 for 3500. This was at least 5 years ago, I figure I overpayed by 3,000.

Seems like an awfully good price on a great mandolin with some...

I used to own that one. Great Mandolin, a little rough but sounds great. Buck White still has his but it gets mostly closet time since Ricky got him the Gilchrist.

Thanks! This is awesome!

I have checked everywhere on the forum and found a small amount of info, and some printed tab that does not seem to be a beginner version. I have also checked the web extensively. I don't mind...
