Re: Advice on finding someone in my area for lessons
I can't recommend anyone, except if you have skype, Mike Compton improved my playing immensely. What I was going to say though is make sure you get a teacher who plays mandolin, not a guitarist who thinks 'they're all the same'... Listening to Thile, Hull, Grisman, Burns, Duffey, McCoury, they don't play it like a guitar. (Bush is a slight exception, but only because he doesn't have the wrist movement since breaking his wrist a couple of decades back - it still doesn't sound like a guitar, though). So make sure they are primarily mandolin, or at least know the difference. THis shouldn't be too hard in Kentucky.
