That would be great! :mandosmiley:
I agree - interesting thread indeed and I found some good options - especially the one in Nohoval that is less than an hour from where I live. Siveen's instruments look gorgeous and he is close...
Thanks! Is Foley still around? I've been looking all around the internet for him (but again, not on Facebook), having owned one of his bouzoukis in the past. I sold it because it was too large and...
Thank you! I've saved the link to Moloney already, looks interesting. The other two were new to me. I've also found one that is actually in my area, so I'll definitely contact him.
Simply because I live in Ireland, and I want to easily be able to go and test play bouzoukis before deciding to buy. I'm interested in something up to €2500 but can go beyond that (not more than...
Hello everyone!
I haven't posted here for years and years. But - I'm looking to upgrade my octave mandolin and see that there's very little info online although there should be loads of builders in...
I have one. It cured me from the MAS. I'll never want another mandolin. Seriously!
Yes, that's a Swedish song and it even has lyrics in ossmol (Orsamål, a special dialect from the place I come from originally). And yes, I promise to record that one eventually...
Oh is it John Ryan's??!! Very nice. I can even play that on the squeezebox!
Am I blind or is the classifieds subforum gone? Where should I post if I want to sell my bouzouki?
Barbara, when you click on an mp3 file it should open in iTunes. Here it obviously work since there is some kind of weird html file created?! But yeah, it works if you delete the .html from the file....
I played a Moon bouzouki in Ireland when I was there over New Year, and it was absolutely beautiful. Didn't have time to explore it a lot as I only borrowed it for one single session, but it was easy...
Wow, I'll have to get to that instrument museum the next time I go to Rome!!!!
I can imagine it is frustrating to get sick in a country where noone speaks your language, and yes, in Italy few...
The last time I was in Venice, when I was there with my husband, we got lost. While being lost, we found a music shop where we bought a bowl back mandolin:):)
There is one on film, though. At the very end of Cold Mountain, when they're having a picknick, one of the guys is playing a bowlback.
There is no tradition of any mandolin in oldtime music, but we'd better start one!!!
One that doesn't get out of tune:)
Cool with musical cats. Mine escaped - but mostly when I played the tin whistle.
I must say that after I got my top quality Flatbush, my urge to buy other mandolins has totally disappeared.
Cool, the excitement of getting a new instrument is complete!!!! Good luck with it.
Wooo, that green mandolin looks awesome!!!!!!! Very interesting with the side sound hole. Do you notice a difference?? Doesn't some sound escape there so that less sound is heard to the others???
...
That looks very nice!!! I hope it sounds as good as it looks.
I don't know any licks. I suck at scales (I just know what notes to play in a particular key, if it isn't like A flat or something). I just play around with the melody, go up and down a bit playing...
That's very sad news. I've been reading about his illness and my knowledge and experience told me that he wouldn't make it, but I had some hope since he was doing better and all that... I'm sorry to...
