    Default Home made mandolin, homemade fiddle, home made banjo...

    ...and store bought guitar. I am really enjoying playing my home made mandolin even though I am not very good at it.

    Homemade is quite and understatement for sure. Very nice work.

    ... liked the authentic music.

    There is a couple (long time no see) with the last name of Tress. They play(ed) as a duo in a bluegrassish way. Now he, he was a natural. Natural as in a mountain way. But we´re not talking about the Apalachians. We´re talking Hamburg, Germany. I have encountered suchlike musicians over here too.

    I value natural music over other kinds (especially the slick kind).

    That said: I liked your music. And: Five fingered thumbs... I probably would not have come as far as you.

    Cheers.
