    Re: Sierra Hull "E-Tune"

    I think I'll learn and master this tune after work today. :grin:
  3. Re: Sierra Hull & Billy Strings "What Does the Deep Sea Say?"

    I've been saying that ever since I saw them do an impromptu set at Grey Fox a few years back. They can both certainly pick and their voices harmonize beautifully.

    Re: Is Jenni Lyn still making music?

    And Della Mae no longer has a mandolin player at all due to the expense of having a 5th member. That's really too bad as they were always a great band with a mandolin player. They're still great,...
  8. Re: What’s the nicest mandolin you’ve ever seen?

    John Reischman's Loar. I was so nervous that it felt like 100 lbs in my lap; my fingers were so shaky that my "playing" turned out to be a pathetic scratchy Arkansas Traveler. The Loar was the...

    Re: 1950’s Gibson F5

    Although I am by NO means a mandolin expert and have never owned a Gibson (just instruments that from companies taht Gibson bought and subsequently buried), I've read enough to come to my own...

    Re: Gibson F-9 sinking top

    "... a new F-9 costs $5299" and "From my experience these [F-9s] can be all over the map both in quality of build and tone. Failed ones occur from time to time here on MC."

    Are you kidding me? A...

    Re: Gibson F-9 sinking top

    Ugh. I'm really sorry to hear that your f-9 is experiencing grief. Not cool, esp. reading that the F-9 gets a subpar build! How much do these cost?! Too much, no, way too much, for this to be...

  15. Re: Tips on getting more volume out of a 3 week old Mando?

    Keep playing the ever living heck out of it and if you believe the folklore, resting it against the front of a speaker with Black Sabbath set to 11 for a day or two may help as well.

    Re: New Kentucky KM-606 mandolins are in the wild!

    I like it but then again I've always liked a black-faced mandolin (are we allowed to say this?) and even had a nice black Flatiron A once upon a time. Good on Eastman for trying something different.
  18. Re: Mandolin Tasting: Gibsons, Buckeye, Duff, Northfiled

    Tough! I like the lot and really like a few a few. Here's my order: 1 > 3 > 2 > 4 > 5 > 6 though I'm almost positive that I'd reorder upon a second listen. My guess is the no. 1 is either the LL or...

    Kentucky 272 and my big problem

    After putting MAS to sleep for a long while I read this review of the Kentucky 272 written by MC member MikeZito back in 2017. If you're not familiar with this model it's an amber colored oval hole...

    Case for Martin A mandolin

    Knowledgeable people,

    I've got what purports to be a nearly perfect SS Steward/Martin arriving in a few days. As you can imagine, I'm excited as I've put MAS off for nearly a decade. The only...
