Re: One mando kind of picker...
Having owned (and still own) multiple cheaper instruments, I can add this bit. I certainly didn't start out expecting to own a bunch of cheap(er) instruments and I didn't buy them all at the same time. One was a gift, one was purchased to replace the gift when its neck went bad, another was purchased when the second instrument went into the shop and I was told it couldn't be fixed (it could). One was really a fine instrument that I bought for $85 (oval hole) at an auction resell place that I got just for fun ... but all of them have been collecting dust since I got my snake. I'm going to fit my Eastman with a bridge pickup to have something to play plugged in.
