    Re: Condenser mic for live and home recording

    Really, for live work, just about any decent quality LDC will work. I use an AT 4050, but have also used an inexpensive AKG P220 with great results while the AT was set up in the studio. For studio...

    Re: Hoffee case in the Asheville area?

    Dream guitars is a Hoffee dealer. Not sure if Paul keeps them in stock, but I'd bet he'd let you try one out if he did.

    Re: Mandolin Orange Live in Studio "New Sounds"

    Ella was much more pleasing to my ear, than your Gil, when I saw/heard you and Eli up close at The Station. Really surprised you let her go. Curious as to where Danny's Nugget ended up?

    What carrier are most of you using these days. I haven't had to ship a mando in a few years. I know rates have changed quite a bit. I'm more concerned with reliability than cost, but I don't mind...

    I worked in the Outdoor industry for 22 years. In that time I saw hundreds of plastic buckle failures. I would never trust the security of anything of value to a plastic piece of hardware.

    I agree, no finer folks to do biz with.
