    Re: Who does not play bluegrass?

    The only bluegrass tune I know is cripple creek, so I wouldn't say that I play bluegrass :grin:

    I mostly play Swedish and Celtic folk music, as well as some folk pop.

    Re: Mystery mandolin

    It has a bit of a thin sound, but it sounds decent to me. The tune is really nice, though. Did you write it?
  3. Re: Could a flat top & bottom case damage a regular arched mandol

    Thanks a lot!

    The lining pushes into the bridge and strings a tiny bit, but the case closes with ease and the sides stay perfectly flat so I guess I'll be okay.




    That doesn't sound good...
  4. Could a flat top & bottom case damage a regular arched mandolin?

    I just bought a cheap hardcase for my cheap mandolin. Turns out that it's flat top and bottom, which doesn't seem ideal from what I've gathered, but can this cause any harm towards the instrument...

    Eastman MD305 in Europe?

    I have a friend who is thinking about switching up to an Eastman MD305. The problem is, he can't seem to find any Europe-based retailers and he would prefer to not order from USA (due to quite high...
  6. Re: Help! My mandolin strings keep acting like sympathetic string

    I removed them one by one, so I don't think it moved.
  7. Re: Help! My mandolin strings keep acting like sympathetic string

    Don't think it's a wolf tone, as it happens to some extent on all the strings :confused:
    I googled further on the subject and it seems like it's sympathetic vibrations. I have no idea how to solve...
  8. Re: Help! My mandolin strings keep acting like sympathetic string

    I hope it's just that.. Thanks!
  9. Help! My mandolin strings keep acting like sympathetic strings!

    It seems that my mandolin has recently developed the belief that it's a hardanger fiddle. This happened after a recent string change (first string change in two years). Same string gauge as before...
  10. Re: Anyone else notice the amazing drawing power of the mandolin?

    Mandolinism definitely is contagious. When I started out, I didn't know any mandolin players, but now 2 of my friends and 1 acquaintance plays it.

    No names for my mandolins, but I've named my mandola Nelson. Nelson Mandola.

    Re: Post a picture of your band!!

    Took a photo of my folk duo a few days ago. And I must say it's relevant:

  13. Instrument stores in southern Sweden or northern Denmark?

    I can barely seem to find any decent mandolins in instrument stores around here (I'm looking to upgrade), so I was hoping that anyone on here knew a good store to buy one in :mandosmiley:

    Re: Are you "Spotified" yet?

    Got it! Apparently, Sam Bush's music was added not too long ago. Made my day!
  15. Re: "Athiests don't have no song" -Steve Martin and Steep Canyon

    I'm an atheist, but that was great.

    Must say that the new verse for Oh When The Saints was genius, too :)

    Re: Heritage H-40 Mandolin

    That's a real beauty! The finish is very beautiful.
    Congratulations on the purchase!

    Also, sound clip would be very appreciated :)
  17. Re: How are you and you mandolin spending Valintines Day?

    We'll probably watch a movie and snuggle. My fiancée might join in too.

    Re: New Mandolinetto

    Looks and sounds really good! Nice job!

    I'm afraid the guitar-shaped body wont exactly help when it comes to people asking "oh, you play ukulele?" though :P
  19. Re: Videos of my friend's new Turkey Creek F5 from a concert

    Sounds really good all of it!

    And I agree, gotta love the chop fiddle.

    Real nice-looking instruments! Wouldn't say no to a watermelon mando. But still, cheese mando is just plain weird.

    Re: Cheeseheads Rule!!!

    Now, I don't know anything about sport. But who would think of making a cheese-mandolin?

    I could imagine the conversation with the luthier: "Hello, I would like a mandolin. Oh, here's the catch -...

    I've played on and off for two years, and I'm not even close to playing like that, maybe it's my lack of beard. Wow, four months. You sir, are awesome. And the mandolin's a real...
