Re: Take your best mandolin to the festivas?
I don't subscribe to the "having a beater" philosophy. I come from the school of "Buy the best you can afford, take excellent care of it, and play the bejeezus out of it."
Even at home, once i pour a scotch or glass of wine the instruments aren't touched.
Both of my mandolins will fit in the Calton case i had done in "Marigold" yellow which can be seen from any distance, though it's usually either next to me or secure somewhere else.
Take the good one!
