Snagged. Excellent effort, you're doing God's work here!
So cool! Very jealous I couldn't be there. Any chance of y'all coming to the Southeast in the future?
As a fellow ten stringer, I approve. Gorgeous instrument!
Hrm, I hadn't noticed, but I can see that being a problem.
I have to laugh at the idea of there being hordes hungry of mandocello players period :)) That said, I can definitely understand your rationale here, and appreciate the perspective. The only reason I...
Hah, it's funny, Terry mentioned he remembered fielding a similar request to mine some years back... must have been you! He also mentioned Neil Gladd. Have you tried to reach out to Neil? I'll do so...
Would that original copyist be Terry Pender? We've been in touch, and he has offered to rummage through his archives for anything of relevance. Should hear back this weekend.
Howdy, I posted this in the Goichberg thread, but for anyone who may search up this thread in the future, here's a Dropbox link containing both the Bickford and Goichberg Vol. 1

Hello everyone, I've managed to get my hands on both the Bickford and Goichberg Vol. 1. Here's a Dropbox link for your enjoyment. If this post runs afoul of any copyright restrictions, please feel...
Just had a quick chat with him, I believe he will indeed be bringing copies.
Hi Jim,
Thanks for the recap, I've emailed you regarding the Bickford method. I do have a question since you've been in touch with Mr. Goichberg's daughter: does the 2nd volume of his mandocello...
Ah, indeed it's plainly stated right there in your message. I've sent a PM, thank you!
Wonderful review, and thanks for the lead! Unfortunately, my Google Fu doesn't seem equal to the task of finding a link to actually purchase this CD anywhere. Do you happen to know the publisher?
Hello all,
I'd love to hear a complete or complete-ish compilation of Calace's works for liuto for inspiration, but I can't seem to find one anywhere. Anyone have any leads? Happy to make a...
For anyone persistent enough to follow up on whatever scant leads are available, I want to make it known that I've contacted Mr. Pender and Mr. Jacobson regarding the elusive 2nd volume. I'm waiting...
The great cellist Pablo Casals may or may not have said a string sounds the best right before it breaks. He also may or may not have been referencing the wear properties of catgut. YMMV, but I tend...
^ Thread MVP. Thanks Dave!
Any tempo or articulation suggestions for these scores?
Just wanted to bump this question if anyone has any insight?
Edit: whoops! Looks like I had sampler #2. Anyone with Sampler #2 have any ideas about that Wegen pick?
I imagine you'd have to transcribe and arrange such a thing for yourself. This is highly specific and fairly outside the realm of mandolin repertoire, both classical and modern. That said, I adore...
To whoever currently has Sampler #1: What thickness is that white Wegen Bluegrass pick? I'd like to buy one, but can't remember the size.
Dogal's nomenclature for the Calace line is actually quite straightforward, and will help you understand their product line a lot better. "HR" is "half-round", "RW" is "round-wound", "A" denotes an...
You might look around for used Pomeroy's, but those are like hen's teeth so far as I can tell...
Man, the pics on that website hurt my eyes. The overuse of filters is highly suspect, as is the product description. Thank goodness the instruments seem to sound better than their marketing!
Stoked for you, brotherman! Could I convince you to do an unboxing video for us?
