I've been activating my sweet tooths on those Bach that's worse than them bites...
On the Easyman MDC-805 set up special by my local luthier I still run into problems.... The fret buzz, the lack of dynamics... You dextrous mand-experts ever get that one down? We wan't Bach's suites to sound soulfull, express, but it keeps gnashing out, biting our fingers, screeching when we want a soft hiss! Been looking at those Damann mandocellos, with their quick-adjustable necks. Maybe they can give me the action I seek?... Or is this a question solely of technique? In my scores I see things like "pianissimo, mezzo-forte, fortissimo..." Can I wrest these dynamics from the beast? Or look elsewhere? Alas, Poor Yorrick.
Anywho, just checking in for hints or tips, to the secrets of the thing.
