I'm in the process of selling one of my guitars to get a mandolin.
Initially it was to get an Ibanez RG!! but after some soul searching I realised I have a guitar that can do all the Rg can do and adding a mandolin to my arsenal will give me so much more.
There is a local shop here in Galway that has a fair few mandolins to look at but my initial research is telling me to get the Loar LM 700 with setup and Cumberland bridge.
I used to have a cheap mandolin when I needed to play a couple Steve Earle songs in one of my old bands but it really wasn't good. I know people will say I'll get more for my money with an A style but like so many others I really want an F style.
I look forward to my journey and sharing with you all
