My Long Road To Mandolin I wonder if I could have arrived here sooner; there were periods where I was working on related efforts, like folk guitar (60s) rock guitar (70s) bluegrass (80s) and so on. But I started musical life as a violin player. After hearing my amateur mother and friends play chamber music, I begged for lessons at age three, and was granted my wish the following year. When I was older, my mother encouraged me to listen to and buy dance records so ...
**btw Bruce wanted to let everyone know he has a bit of this beautiful, bear claw spruce left...You may know we have an area on our website where we post the occasional Festival Instrument that we have in the shop.

With an introduction by Kris Kristofferson, this book easily ranks as one of my favorite music biographies of all-time, and I've read many. Satan Is Real, The Ballad of the Louvin Brothers was written by Charlie Louvin with Benjamin Whitmer (Igniter press, published January 3, 2012 a year after Charlie's passing).

The 10th Anniversary Mandolin. Let me explain Bruce has only had time to make three, and there were 10 planned. I am not at all sure there is enough time left in the Weber universe to build all ten at this rate, but he is now offering the instrument as an mandola, octave, or mandocello.
