Like the Stroboclip around home. Use the Unitune or Polytune at jams and performances. It turns on and off quicker and is just as accurate, IMO.

Do occasionally jam with a guitarist who plays in...

I have the birch model, mine is a catalogue model that's not branded, but equivalent to the H410 Monterey. I find it has a likable, balanced sound, but not the biggest in terms of depth or...

The TC Unitune Clip is nice because it works well, and folds back so it does not look like a small TV on the headstock. Battery life is great.

I have a clip on Peterson for the bench, but use the Unitune for everything else. It's very accurate, right up there with the Peterson, and gets about 4-5 times the battery life. I have one I keep on...

Have had a lot of tuners in the last decade.
I love my pedal Turbo Tuner strobe and my Peterson clip on, the rest are not as good at their job (if workable employees)

I currently have three Stroboclips, a Strobostomp, and a Stroboplus. Love Peterson tuners lol.

^^^ CS is one of my all-time favorite bands. This cover is insanely well-done! Thought some here might enjoy.

Ronnie McCoury Month (BONUS) | Day 31: Thanks A Lot

Got home from a 36 hour van ride and immediately went to recording today's video. My brain is fried from sitting in a van for that long but I...

I don't play the guitar, Bob. Mandolin is my first instrument and I've been playing since just after Thanksgiving of last year. I enjoyed that video though and intend to check out more of his stuff.

Yep, it's that Gibson mojo that works for this one. Bumps up the price considerably, just because ...

The funny thing is that they have a similar model Kay on the site for $299.00.

I just got a helluva deal on a used Kay mandolin at guitar center. Would pass for a Gibson

Now, now, don't sell it short. They're probably also tuned the same. Probably ... :whistling:

Maybe this instrument and a Gibson might SMELL the same. Other than that...

That's hysterical. I hope they didn't pay Gibson prices for that Kay mandolin.

I just dropped them a note. Let's see what they say.

Ronnie McCoury Month | Day 16: I Haven’t Seen Mary In Years

If I could play back up mando parts the rest of my career I’d be happy. Free sheet music/tab here:...

I have one like that ... From 2013 I think. It is my back-up for when I leave my Collings mando home but could easily be my everyday mando. I like it so much that I had stainless steel frets put on...

As others have said, that's the older inlay. The present one is the rose inlay.

And those newer ones are quite good.

I saw a used 505 in the GC used listings with some extra inlay. No idea if it is a deal or not.

That's an older model 500. The inlay is the "Art Deco" inlay used at the time. I had one several years ago. Played it a lot - I really enjoyed the playability and sound on mine. Good luck!
