I saw this in the sidebar on youtube. When you see a title like that, you just have to watch. It is an interesting build and sounds good. Is Larry a member here?

I like that. The mando and the video. That thing really puts out some sound.

I could not tell if the video sound was just distorting or the mandolin was buzzing.
Evidently heel-less, too. Here are some photos.

Aren’t A5’s already “pointless”? Anyway, it’s hard to tell how it really sounds. It seems loud but it’s obviously a very reverberant room, which can contribute to the illusion of volume. Doesn’t seem to have any low end to speak of.
As a side note, the player has a very odd right hand playing style. It’s like only his thumb and index finger move. No wrist movement at all.

Thanks Jim, I am not familiar with Larry Campbell, the Nashville sideman. I may have to google him.

Worth checking out. I've seen him play in a number of settings and he is always terrific.
