Hi all,
I've gone to a couple of old time music camps and to Clifftop twice, as well as occasional jams in various cities besides where I live, and I have never seen a mandolin player with a hybrid instrument--that is, an oval hole with a neck joined at the 13th or 14th fret. In other words, I've never seen a Collings MTO, a Weber or Northfields oval, an Ellis, etc. Okay, I did once see a Morris at Clifftop.
So my question is, anyone out there play one or hear one at old time jams? And what's your experience in terms of the sound in a jam situation? Or if you have any thoughts about it.
Thanks.
