That's a sweetheart Dan!!!

Exquisit Dan!! Truly a beautiful instrument!!
Dan, that new Kentucky of yours should be pictured here…just saying'! :)
Cool time machine though! What a great pickup system! The mandolin was obviously played and loved a bit, no matter what year or make, I always have an instant respect for an instrument that was loved...
On my recent tour of the Baltic cities, this scary fellow in the very medieval city of Tallinn, Estonia (former USSR) pegged me as being from "out of town" despite my substantial efforts to try and...
An amazing trip in Iceland and the Baltic cities!! Here are a couple shots of me and my Kentucky. I wimped out at the last minute and grabbed my F model. It was a known commodity and I did not want...
It is so easy to be enticed to buy a more expensive instrument but often you don't get better, just different. Having a well set up, somewhat played in Kentucky in the hands of a player is a valid...
My three Kentucky's! (KM-1050, KM-172, KE-300)

Nice job!! Always a great tune to have in your back pocket!! The 505 sounds great also!
He really does have his own thing. It is a solid nod to the father but Compton has his own distinct style! I have been wearing out the "Stomp" CD lately!
Great video, thanks for the post!!
This is a video I make quite awhile ago comparing my Weber Fern with a Kentucky KM-1000. This was an eye opener for me to be sure! I still feel the Weber was just the teensiest better sounding, but...
That's sweet!! Also, you can live in the case if times get hard! :)) Kidding of course, that Fern case is large but nothing will happen to that mandolin as long as it is in there!!!
I'm a big 505 fan, congrats!!
My fully accessorized and ready for jammin' KM-1050!
Gotcher pickguard and bridge from Cumberland Acoustics, Bill Bailey strap, Blue Chip pick, Gibsom Bill Monroe strings, Weber Wood Nymph and of...
Congrats on the Loar, ain't nothing wrong with that mando...now picky, picky!!!
One of my all time favorite visual experiences! I want just like it but with a decorative nod to Alaska....
This thread needs Andy B's Kentucky KM1000 oval hole, really sweet machine!!

Think of the cello as home gym equipment. Just think of the shape you be in without all that hopping around! :)
Enjoy, Mandocello is a blast!
It is all personal preference isn't it. I think many PGs get a bad wrap because they are cheap black things that don't look right. If a PG is good quality and feels and looks like part of the...
If my finger holds out for a year, I will be getting another Weber Fern or a custom Yellowstone. They are all the mandolin a guy (or gal) needs!!
Data - that one looks like a custom Bitterroot to...
So the first “upgrade” I wanted to do to my mandocello was to install a set of eMando "Normal" mandocello strings with the heavier C string. The stock one is pretty flubby! I knew that I would have...
What's "PA?" As long as you get a newer Eastman, the tailpiece is fixed. Allen will be happy, as the tasty ebony cover is still utilized!
So you got the classic finish the right? Those strings...
