I don't see Serra Hull or Jethro Burns.
Nor a single bowlback!
1. Not sure 2. Thile 3. Compton 4. Bush 5. Reischman 6. Monroe 7. Skaggs 8. Wakefield 9. Tiny Moore 10. Grisman 11. Marshall.
Number 1 has me stumped. I am leaning towards Monroe with the F-5L. Cool collage.

Yep, #3 is MC playing Sitting on Top of the World at Music City Roots. I’ve watched that countless times, trying to get just even an ounce of that groove in my playing
Jethro is well represented - occupying spot #1, playing an F5. The photo is snagged from this video.

I appreciated seeing this and found it encouraging. I was aware there were variances, but not to the degree this depicts. I have watched this concept with great interest having come from the guitar world as a player for nearly 60 years. For the last 9 years, I have played the mandolin, and I have worked at finding the balance between what was natural for me on guitar, and what is most effective for developing mandolin technique. Very entertaining and educational post!

Hmmm. I might just stop worrying about my grip. I am somewhere close to the spectrum. Problem being, that removes one of my excuses.
