FWIW I've got a ton of those images saved in a folder on my machine at home. Google image search is one of the best things that ever happened for self taught musicians (in my opinion). I use the...

That pretty much sums it up for me too.
...and is probably true of almost everyone if the truth be told.

One thing I really like about owning a high quality instrument is that even my mistakes...

Ouch! Painful zinger at the end:

Congratulations in advance!

I can't carry a tune in a bucket and I own a very expensive mandolin. I'm speaking from personal experience when I say that you should go for the Gibson, if that's "the one" for you.

I bought a...

Then how about "mandolin shaped obscenity"?

I think its uglier than sin on Sunday ...and I'd be proud to own it just so I could break it out at a jam. :disbelief:

But not at $200.


...

Now THAT's an electric mandolin.
Is it tuned to G.E.?

DO IT! It sounds awesome. At least mine does (though my ears and skill level are both highly suspect)



Absolutely. Here's an abbreviated version of my method (see link below for the...

Its better to search the forum than to post identical questions for the hundredth time

:grin:

Two out of three ain't bad.



Truly inspirational. I'm stealing this one. Deal with it. :grin:

The only one I'm really going for this year is to be the guy who's always doing something...

That describes what I did last night (much more eloquently than ever I could). A handful of musicians sitting in a circle jamming until the wee hours of the morning. I was way outclassed but the...

What size ukulele is it? If it is soprano or baritone then I can tell you an easy way to tune it in fifths, GDAE, just like a mandolin. Concert and tenor ukes can be tuned that way, certainly, but...

Playing mandolin
Plinky plink deedle deedle
Joyful distraction

Its a custom job built for her by Bernard Mollberg using an old piece of wood he'd been hanging on to for 15 years or so. No really.

Here's a clip that will give you a few closer glimpses...

If you have a way to record yoursefl and play it back you can record yourself playing through the chords only and then play it back and acompany yourself with the the TAB.
Or vice versa.

That's pretty cool.
Imagine what its going to be like when they can fine tune the "printing" process to include things like variable density and flexibility. It could easily be the next big...

I think the key is that Taylor Swift is telling stories that are extremely interesting to young girls and she has a face that is extremely distracting to young boys. That alone is good for sold out...

I can't wait for the sequels:

"So Long and Thanks for all the Picks"

and

"Jam Session at the End of the Universe".

That's why I lock mine. To keep out the gall.

I don't smoke but I do have meetings and trips to the microwave at lunch.
My insurance covers theft. It doesn't cover cooties.

He had me at "maple". :whistling:

I can't decide if it looks prettier than it sounds or if it sounds prettier than it looks.
I'm betting Mr. McGill won't be going hungry anytime soon.

Thanks for sharing

Believe it or not that's what I've used from the day that I bought my first mandolin to help me tune the little guy.
I don't need it any more but it still pops into my head whenever I tune or see...

Let us not forget "Mandolin for Dummies" by Don Julin (a forum member!)

I'm learning quite a bit out of that little treasure.

Welcome to the Cafe

Each of them could have said no to Alan and hung up the phone. You are digging for something to be unhappy about on that one.
