    Thumbs up Fretboard Journal - Mandolin Conversations - eBook

    I just received confirmation that the Fretboard Journal's eBook - Mandolin Conversations is now available http://www.fretboardjournal.com/ebook.

    Info from the website...


    Mandolin Conversations is the Fretboard Journal's first eBook project. Not surprisingly given the title, this 70 page book features interviews with some of our favorite mandolin players and builders.

    Included are in-depth conversations with:
    Luthier Steve Gilchrist
    Musicians Chris Thile & David Grisman (previously published in our hard-to-find 10th issue)
    Bill Collings of Collings Guitars and Mandolins
    Luthier Don MacRostie
    Luthier Lynn Dudenbostel
    Musician Andy Statman
    and luthier Mike Kemnitzer (Nugget Mandolins)

    Filled with in-depth interviews (and links to pertinent photos and websites), it will appeal to both entry level players and aficionados looking for more information from some mandolin legends.


    PS: They are also working on a ton of mandolin content for the next magazine right now, including interviews with John Reischman and luthier Lawrence Smart.

    I find it interesting that both Steve Gilchrist and Mike Kemnitzer both first learned from the same books...Irving Sloane’s Classic Guitar Construction and Violin-Making: As It Was and Is by Ed Heron-Allen.
