A strings are the hardest for me to keep in tune followed by D
I learned the basics from a book and a DVD. After learning the basics I was pretty much self taught. I never took lessons but I have learned some valuable things in this forum.
It was a great time. Good music and nice people. I got to play instruments that I never imagined that I would ever play. I learned a lot and had a lot of fun. Thanks Judith and Karen and all the...

Working at home Santiago? I bet there won't be much work getting done when your mandolin arrives. http://www.mandolincafe.net/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif
I've been there. I have the patience to do weeks of research and saving money before I buy something but as soon as the order is placed I lose all my patience waiting for the package to arrive.

I understand the theory behind FFcP and encourage everyone to work at it.
However, I can understand what alespa is experiencing because I have a similar problem. A few weeks after getting a...
The Harrisburg, Lancaster, York are is often referred to as Central PA by the locals even though it is south central. If this is the area that you are referring to then I can sympathize with you. The...
Every thing being equal I would prefer the blonde.
A less than desirable grain in the wood would stand out like a sore thumb, however.
I agree with G_Smolt that the vast majority of questions can be answered with some research if you are buying a new mandolin from one of the well known manufacturers. It's easy to go to the...
Within the last 2 weeks I have e-mailed 2 music instrument on line stores, 2 E-bay sellers, and 2 E-bay stores with questions about instruments that they had for sale.
One of the E-bay sellers...
You do have to be careful if you are on a site that doesn't specialize in mandolins and other instruments in the mandolin family. The may call an instrument one thing but when I read more about the...

Very nice Joe!
I was looking for subtle differences in the beginning and after the first 8 or 10 I think I got the hang of it. I guess I should have read all the posts first. I scored 25 out of 30 but my cat was...
"Citizen's arrest" is one of my favorites too. I think that TV Land is going to have an "Andy Griffith Show" marathon to honor Don Knotts. Is it just me or were comedy shows much funnier 30 or 40...

Did you buy your octave online? How do you like it? I'm looking for an inexpensive one to see if I can adjust it from a mandolin but I don't want to spend a bundle. On the other hand I don't...

I like Link's attitude.
I'm considering either a mandola or octave mandolin for my next purchase. #I've never played either and want to make sure that I understand the differences and which would be easier for a mandolin...
