    On the contrary, I feel like I'm going to win. Thanks for my favorite website/Facebook posts.

    I still don't see a word to click that will take me to register to win. Anyone know how to register?

    No such thing. We select one winner and that's the only person contacted. This is covered in the Entry Rules listed on the page where folks register:

    - We will contact the winning entry by email.
    - Non-winning entries will not be contacted.

    As a traumatic brain injury survivor I bought and starting playing a mandolin because it's better therapy then any other therapy. Please let me win so I can play a better mandolin then my budget will allow.
    I think, therefore, I pick.

    You didn't send an email. You registered on a web form. The resulting page upon submission told you the registration was successful. The guidelines are clear and spell out how this all happens and who is contacted and who is not. This really works. We've been doing it for years. I do this for a living.

    More questions?

    Just like the guidelines say on the page: Registration is open to all Mandolin Cafe visitors.

    That means anywhere it can be shipped it'll get sent. Poughkeepsie to Pakistan or wherever the winner resides.

    Recently bought a used LH-300. Bottom of the line Loar archtop.

    Fabulous.

    It has become my number one go-to guitar.
    Would love to have a matching mando.

    Thanks for the giveaway.

    Just bought the LM 500, and the LM 700/500 would make a nice pair.

    I played the same Loar model and was very impressed. It was the best mandolin at the Guitar Center on Pico blvd. performing better than higher priced brands. Top pick for sure. It'll bring great pleasure and joy for the Lucky winner.

    As you may see on the home page, we've tossed out a hint as to who the winner is. Turns out he has been a mildly active member that appears to be based in California but hasn't logged in for a few weeks. Not unusual. People join, lose interest, come back sometimes. Sometimes they don't.

    Here's the funny bit. I *think* he's a high school student. Just guessing but possibly 15-18. If he's anything like my daughter, email is that old thing grown-ups use. Texting is what it's all about now. She checks her email... almost never. Thinking I may have a hard time getting ahold of him but thanks--no volunteers need apply.

    That's the bad news for the 10,500+ others that applied, but look for another giveaway to be announced in the near future.

    For a high school student who's really into mandolin, this would be a magnificent thing. I speak from somewhat-relevant experience. When I turned 16 my father offered me a choice of a car or a French horn. I took the horn. 45 years later, I'm still absolutely certain that I made the right decision. Let's all hope this works out well.
