I still have my Backroads LP... but no longer have a record player. Alas, I can not find the TAB insert that came with the LP. Where can one find a copy?
THanks,
Sandy

I have been trying to dig up the original of my book. But I remember also have an extra paper insert (maybe 8-10 pages) that included additional tablature for extra verses on songs (such as...

Thanks for this info. Have you, or anyone else, know the relative merits of an ABS vs a fiberglass case?
Thanks!

Did you ever find good sheet music for the mandolin and piano? I am looking as well. My wife is starting piano and we thought duets would be a nice way to fill the time during the quarantine. ...

I find my insert! If anyone wants it, please contact. me.

Also, is there some place to get the insert? I found my copy of Tottle's instruction book and my LP. But I can't find the booklet that was the insert. I vaguely remember learning a longer version...

Are any of these links still alive?
I still have my LP of Jack Tottle, Red White and Bluegrass, but I don't have a record player.
Would love to get a FLAC version.
Thanks

Any recommendation on how to photograph or see the FON?
Thanks!

Where is the FON stamped? I have what I have been told is a 1918 Gibson a that I would like to identify. Thanks

Thank you for your observation.
I have a Gibson A from 1918 where it also gets harder to play up the neck. That is part of the reason why I am looking for a new one. Could someone with more...

If you ever get too tired of the oval holed gibbons let me know. I hope to be in the market soon (paying college tuition bills now)

Thank you so much for the input. Some very good suggestions.
- What is the advantage of a truss rod or not?
- Are there some years in the 1915-1935 one should avoid (poor construction)?
Sorry of...

I am looking to get an oval-holed Gibson A. Could someone point me to a source of information on
- the differences between the A0, A1, etc?
- relative merits of a truss-rod, paddle-head, snake...

I initially heard Andy Statman with Country Cooking (which had two amazing banjo players) and then Breakfast Special and the Wretched Refuse String Band. Andy's Oval holed Gibson sang through...

Fatt-Dad,
I am in New York City, but would be willing to travel from DC to Boston to see one.

I am looking for a Gibson A oval hole and I need advise:
1) What are the differences in the A A-1 A-2 etc?
2) How would you buy one if you can't play it? I went to the House of Musical Traditions...

So the recommendation is to learn the arpeggio that goes with each chord -that way I am hitting "safe" notes - and then with time learn how to deviate?

I have been playing the mandolin long enough that I don't need a beginning book. However, i do not know much about music theory and I play with musicians (rock, blues, folk) who are REALLY good at...

What a great article - thanks! Do you know if the author ever did a spectral analysis from different angles relative to the mandolin? I am asking because there are two reasons why I am very...

In theory I would have expected greater access up the neck with an F model. If there is no difference in sound, and if I am set on an oval hole (I am) then there is no advantage to the F model. An...

I am in the market for a second mandolin (my first is a 1918 Gibson A). After getting a chance to play a few - I definitely want an oval hole: I can hear a clear difference and for what I play (I...

I am looking for an oval holed mandolin in the $500-$1000: Any shops between Philadelphia and Boston that have a reasonable selection? I went to Mandolin Brothers and they mainly had vintage...
