    I already posted on this on the listserver, but I am impatient for a reply (no sense of delayed gratification) and want to see if anyone can help me out.

    I have been looking for a copy of Niles Hokkanen's book on electric mandolin that he used to offer.

    I believe it is out of print. It is no longer on his catalogue. I have written him once before about this and he did not reply, so I suspect it is simply not available any more (I sent another e-mail today just to doublecheck with him).

    Could anyone sell me a used copy of his book (with cassette tapes) on the electric mando?

    I really want to get into the rock side of mandolin, after going to a Rush concert last night. Time to branch out from my Bill Monroe licks...

    Please help!

    Hmmm, emando.com has ordering information on the site, but I cannot personally vouch for it being current. www.emando.com > etc > instruction. Hope this helps

    Let me see if I can get a reply from Niles ...

    Thanks to both of you for your replies!

    After trying Niles first, I finally found someone willing to part with an old copy. This will have to be the next best thing to attending one of Niles Hokkanen's live workshops, for now.

    Regards,
