Mandolin for Dummies/Mandolin Exercises for Dummies
Hello!
I just ordered my firsat mandolin - A Kentucky KM-250 from Elderly Instruments.
I also ordered some books from Amazon - First 50 Songs You Should Play On Mandolin by Hal Leonard, and Mandolin From Scratch by Bruce Emery. I have several of Bruce's From Scratch books for other instruments, and I've always found them helpful and informative.
I got the kindle version of Mandolin for Dummies 2nd Ed., and I'm thinking maybe I like it enough to buy the paper version. Had anyone else used that to help them learn mandolin? What about Mandolin Exercises for Dummies?
Any other method books you guys use or recomment to help a new player learn the basics - Chords, strums, chops, arpeggios, etc.?
Thanks!
Eastman MD-514 (F body, Sitka & maple, oval hole)
Klos Carbon Fiber (on order)
And still saving my nickels & dimes & bottle caps & breakfast cereal box tops for my lifetime mandolin.
