    Good playing on a great mandolin. Bernabe is one of the best American luthiers.

    I remember a YouTube video of Chris Thile on a Mandocello at Carter Vintage playing the Cello Suites and saying how cool it would be to cover them on a mandocello. I always wanted to hear that so thanks Mike for making my dream come true

    Great performance! Thanks for the lesson in scordatura. And thanks for the lesson in establishing multiple voices via pick angle and picking at various distances from the bridge. And thanks for showing and sounding this Monte up close and personal.

    These [MM's Bach cello suites] are all great. (I have the first 3, #s 4 & 5 are in my cart, along with a few other mando-centric items, waiting for Bandcamp Friday )

    Strange sound. A good mandolin with a good player can do more.

    I too like Chris' playing and the acoustic in the room sound really good to me.

    Such a great tune and vibe I had to transcribe this version. I'm new here and cant figure out how to post a file, but maybe this link will work. https://drive.google.com/open?id=1-t...C&usp=drive_fs

    Talented musicians clearly enjoying making music together. And that Richter is a great sounding mandolin.

    Great picking Michael! I have taken some of Michael’s classes over the years and he is a great teacher. His deep dive knowledge is 2nd to none and his enthusiasm about the content is contagious.

    Wow! Very cool - You are making that A50 earn its keep! That's a rousing tune, and you got a great tone out of that mando. Great playing.
  31. darylcrisp's Avatar
    that was fantastic!
    i love slower relaxing played tunes and this certainly qualified.
    just beautiful way to start the day out.

    This heated up nicely! Really a sweet mix. I love the drumming! With a good bass player this would be a fun trio!

    I'm hardly an expert on jazz fusion, but what a fun and energetic performance! Good to see an electric on Mandolin Mondays played with such skill. Note: if you are intrigued by this first minute and a half, you owe it to yourself to see the other six minutes on Instagram and find out where they go. Otherwise, it's like reading the first two chapters of a novel and stopping . . . .
  41. Nick Royal's Avatar
    Well, different fr. the usual Mandolin Mondays! I like the drumming w. the mando.

    Jonah wanted everyone to know the full version is on his Instagram page here.

    FYI, on Instagram there is already a bunch of scam business going on, someone apparently with a username similar to David's telling people they've won and likely requesting some kind of 1) information, or 2) money in order to collect. Can't be sure.

    David is having people tag 5 others and like his page in order to be eligible to win, so anyone that doesn't have an Instagram account will not be eligible. This is creating a lot of reaction, but possibly some things that you may not like. Impossible for us to tell if this will get shut down or not. Proceed at your own... amusement.
