Here is a post of my Loar Buster in an early band setting. The Backwoods Bluegrass band, and before that my Goodfellas Band-A hard drinking bar band, we played in a bunch of sometimes hairy bars!!
Someone requested Constant Sorrow and we never did before that night!
Its been awhile, well I have a video demo of two of my old F-5's, the 34 Fern and an early 38 Flowerpot. I made for a guy who was interested in maybe buying one but alas he was just a Mando-Kicker-Funny! I'll try and get some more at some point of some Loars, my computer is old so it took like 15 hours to upload this to youtube. Both of these pre-war F-5's are some of the best from that era! Both are carved really well, same with the tone bars-they aren't 2x4's like some I've seen and played. Also both have great necks! Hope ya'll like the Demo!

Oh the Fern was originally thought to be a 1936 but according to the FON# and comparing it with the consecutive # F-5 its a 1934. Thanks and more to eventually come of others!
Your dog prefers the fern- and so do I - but they are both great!

I'd like them both, Bill. Super mandolins, fine playing.
That's what I understood in the first place.
It was my bad as I posted the 38 Flowerpot for sale, and then mentioned it when I posted the video a few days ago. MY FAULT! And I won't do that agin as I don't want banned. I wasn't thinking I guess!
