I just recently signed up, so this is my first post, although I have lurked a bit in the past.
Currently I have a HD-028 custom Martin, and more recently picked up an Eastman MD315 F Mandolin that I gave myself for Christmas. I have not figured out how to add this to my signature but I will eventually.
The Mandolin was used but very little, and looks better than new. I put on a set of GHS A270 medium strings a couple days ago. so can't give any reviews on them yet, maybe after a week or two. I went to buy some J74s or 75 but this was all they had.
I ask this in another forum and it did not sound like it was such a good thing to do, but I saw a Youtube on installing a deer antler saddle to bring out some volume, was wondering if anyone here has tried it and what your thoughts are?
Just so you know I have had a mandolin in my past life as a young man, much older now, and enjoyed it, but after setting it down for some years it has been hard to get back into it. The same can be said for the Martin guitar, but I really enjoy that, and got right back to it well almost
Thanks for looking.
