James,

I've been to centrum before. There is a strong emphasis on learning by ear. I would recommend you pick a song that you really like and jump into it. Dudu will help refine your...

Solid work Jamie!

I got a reply back from ronimusic, the audio processing button was disabled.

Does anyone have the sheet music for Araponga and the chart for Ciumento?

My one year old daughter started banging on my keyboard while The Amazing Slow Downer was pulled up on my computer. Now my pitch and speed are unadjustable. Everything else works fine. I've tried...

Those were some great tunes you played today Al, thanks for sharing. I'm looking forward especially to Anat's recordings.

Andy and Jim,

Yeah, my order is with maple back and sides with european spruce with the 10 string model. I'm going basic with no pearl inlay to save cost.

I mostly play a maple one built in 1998 by Manoel Andrade, who I believe passed away a few years ago.

[QUOTE=AndyC;1357554]One more for 2014 - looks like Danilo Brito might have a new album coming down the line. This track is absurd!

He has a new release on iTunes dated November 2014. I haven't...

Anyone heard a mandolin or other instrument with Brazilian Cedar for back and sides?

Thanks for the recap Al. I'll be saving my $ for next year's tuition.

This one is pretty simple and very catchy.

Has anyone run across the dimensions for bandolims? I don't know of any actual live instrument near me to take measurements. Also, how are they braced?

Thanks

In honor of my favorite droid: R2-D2

Both Mandolin and Droid make high pitch beeps and tones and have similar dome/round shapes. Plus, Thile has Star Wars dedicated tunes on his solo...

I would love to see the remaining entries from the top 20. Great contest, this got a lot of people excited about mandolins. That's what it's all about.

Does he dig the Into the Wild soundtrack? Eddie plays mandolin on that and there is banjo. I listen to a lot of the music your brother listens too as well. Bluegrass is the heavy metal of acoustic. I...

Thats looking really good! I m looking forward to seeing his next batch come out. You gotta be psyched! You'll love it.

It's a Gil. I saw a while back he posted it up for sale in the classifieds. Not sure if its the same one or not…

I used to be into SCI a long time ago when they played this kind of stuff. Then I...

Thanks Paul and Doug,

Yeah, I've seed the oudcafe and thought that would be a great reference. I know about the rishas. I wasn't sure if I could get buy at first with my pick, I know now.

Yes,...

Has anyone out there tried expanding to, or actaully have or play the oud? I've been asked to play some middle eastern music, but the mandolin doesn't cut it. So I'm thinking about getting an oud. I...

Thanks for the tip, I'll get there early then. Maybe I'll wear one of my Chelios jerseys to the show... I should probably go with the blackhawks.

Nice review, I'm going to the second seattle show. Thats a great dedication to Chelios.

FYI: Vedder will be on Letterman tonight.

Add my name to the list, Thanks.
