It is on my bookmarks bar on my laptop. Everytime I use my laptop, I check the classified.

However, there have been one or two times when I did not check it, and what I was looking for was no...

Got my F. I asked for one a little on the dark side of tone - old growth sitka top - really, really nice. Beautiful workmanship! Wide nut - but yet a very fast neck!

My first mando was a Martin that I bought in new condition for $250 - in 1978. Even though I got to play it, I did not know anything about how to play one, so it was all a risk. Some years ago, I...

Deliver food to your luthier with the mando! Do it while you are grocery shopping as well. Just a thought!

that is because they are such a good store, they are making sure you are happy when you receive it. (You may have to wait before opening!)

Having had an MT since 2002 to about 2016 - it sounded great at the beginning but there was little need for improvement and I am not sure it did. My Italian Spruce MT2V top has improved over time -...

So, I picked up my 2018 Collings MT2-V today -and all I can say is WOW. When I first got it in 2018, I was a little disappointed as it was great for bluegrass but it a little too out there for my...

I can relate. After years of buying, selling, buying, selling, etc. - I have finally reached a point where any reasonable person would say - I have everything I need.
There is sort of a sadness in...

On GOBM - Mowry and Girouard are excellent! Have not tried the Heiden. I did try a Northfield and I do not think it was as good as the Mowry or Girouard. But it could have been the particular one.

:) I could build one on my own but it may take 10 years and not as good. Collings manufacturing is superb. Why not support them! (And I have no financial interest in Collings whatsoever - just as...

I have had several transactions with The Mandolin Store - and I just want to say that they have the highest integrity of any music store I have dealt with - I just thought I would mention it!

I...

At no extra charge - they forward it to the next level!

Saw him in concert in 1970 or possible 1971. Best concert I was ever at. Would love to check out the book.

Anyone know the difference between the 815 and 915 - Eastman?
THANKS!

I am confused by all this talk about nut width. Many of the Eastman mandos have a 1 3/16 inch wide nut. What the heck is the issue here?

Have a recent purchase - Eastman 515/V varnish - and to me - it is as great as some that cost thousands more. I think their quality control is going up. I was at a store and played some Eastmans...

I understand. I had an MT years ago and I made a big mistake by selling it. Then I picked up an MT2-O, which I like, but I missed the MT sound. So I bought an MT again, and it is my favorite sound...
