I started a social group for San Francisco bay area mandolinists in hopes of getting some jams together. Join my group!
Hmm. this is the Collings social group, but I suppose there may be a Collings mandolin or two down there in the Bay Area.
Well I figured that Gryphon sells plenty collings mandos, and they're only a few blocks from where I live. And I like Collings.
Just bought a MT from Gryphon, but i live up in Auburn, CA. Just a bit too far to get together on a regular basis. Good luck with your group!
