I've been debating whether to post these pics for about a week, as when I see the quality of some of the instruments that are posted on here I am very conscious of the gulf between my efforts and the...
26 years out..apparently I'm 23....I wish!
Youth is wasted on the young!
I'm too busy looking for reasons not to practice.
I'm to busy looking for reasons not to jam.
I've got several...play and sound good on the the octave mandolin, not thick enough for the mandolin.
Really good advice!
"OK....You win...you can have a go on it".......Canute conceded!
I stand corrected. Thanks for the info.
I don't have one of these but I do have an Ozark Mandolin and Octave Mandolin. Both are very well made, nicely finished, are fairly well set up when they arrive and sound very good for their price. A...
....."G string blues" eh!.......over here it's called the thong song!......
I'll get me coat!......TAXI !!!!!!!

Love it...bookmarked it....WILL be going back again! Thanks for sharing that, its a song I have grappled with before(without much success).I'll definitely be having another go at this.
Definitely an introvert here. I play for my own pleasure and don't want or need the approval or critique of others,I'm my own biggest critic. I like playing with others but not for others. I did play...
I chose the OM over the Mandola. I recently sold my 12 String Guitar which I hadn't played for a long time as a spinal injury now makes the dreadnought size of a guitar too uncomfortable to play...
As has said before in this thread, trying different picks is a really interesting part of learning the Mandolin. I've tried different thicknesses, materials shapes...I've even made my own out of...
I think its always useful to learn a skill,whatever it is,and then you have the choice whether to use it or not!
That would be brilliant!
You absolutely right....but you have no idea about my circumstances and the fact that your suggestion is no less impractical for me than the first....just saying!
I'd be there like a shot if it was a bit closer to home.Would love to see something like that in the East Midlands.
I wouldn't get hung up over one self-proclaimed expert's opinion.
Please change mine to Jes Woodland.....Thankyou!
