Boy have you come to the wrong place for help! We are all more like enablers.
For most of us, our 12 step program is buy an A5 style, buy an F5 style, buy an oval hole A, buy an oval hole F, buy a...
Yes, you need to buy 12 mandolins to complete the program. But look at the bright side, you are already on step 2!
Sorry, it's too late, you have MAS. You've got a fever and the only cure is MORE MANDOLIN.
I love 'slides' !. Slides can be used for effect, or to get you from a 'wrong note' to the 'right note' while you're playing. Done neatly,it looks as though you did it for the ''effect''.

Hello, just saying hello.
I have been considering a mandolin for some time, and just recently bought one.
I am primarily a guitar player & bass player, but I enjoy learning new things and mandolin...
I have a ding on the face of my fiddle. It is a gift from my son Dougie. Dougie had Downs Syndrome and passed at the age of 9 yrs and 11 months. I wouldn't have that fiddle any other way. Memories!

A blondie for a blondie...LOL!

Enjoy!

When I was a kid we chopped up an old bass fiddle for firewood. Times were tough back then. We were so poor we had to go to Kentucky Fried Chicken to...
Lots of things, that many people are "into," that I'm borderline ignorant about. Guns: I can tell handgun from long gun, revolver from automatic, but beyond that things blur. Fishing: probably...
I walked out of my room a few weeks ago, strumming my mando (an Ibanez A with a pickup), when my wife's friend says "Oh, is that a new ukelele?", which is funny, considering she had given me a...
So the people on the 'instruments like cardboard cafe' are probably lamenting the fact that no one, not even mandolin players, recognizes their instruments.:(
You went for the honey/tortoise finish, which is like the one I have. It's really quite beautiful, isn't it?
My Yellowstone was my first "serious" mandolin. Picked it out after trying everything...
Very nice Lorraine! There is one listed in the classifieds that has a beautiful Maple back, I would think that the wood in yours is also stellar. Have fun with it.
Having read a number of these discussions/threads I would suggest a number of alternatives. The first is to take a second job, work through the nights for eight months (minimum) so that you have...
gorgeous!
From one Yellowstone owner to another, congratulations.
Nice, congrats!
All woods are fibrous by nature, not good for anything abrasive like constantly plucking strings.
