Thank you, yes it is important to remember who are doing it for and not get cought up in fancy licks. I can play in other keys some of it for the sustain I can get using a capo.

In general I can play moste keys in a more bluegrass style but the prais music is kind of foreigen to me on the mandolin. Thank you

Thank you this will help!

Hi I am trying out for our worship team at church. I have played before at another church, but kind of strugled a bit because I was trying to take the place of electric guitar. Any tricks or advice?...

that is a good idea to start with plaining the button.

thank you very much!

I bought an IV mandolin kit of which I am pleased, my problem is a thick scroll. The binding came cut, and I feel like I will have trouble trying to shave an 1/8" off.

where can I find those at? if this is repeated my apologies.

International Violin F5 kit.

I kind of figured as much, but still curious. I have an IV kit on the way soon, this looks like something I could experiment with.

I I'm not sure if he would do it or not, but he's refreted my webber. He repares and sells ventage guitars mainly. It's worth a shot I suppose.

that's good to know!

I agree it takes some pressure off, and a lot of risk! I could take it to a local shop and pay them to cut the channel, your right.

It's all of what you said I want the experience of putting it together, I do want it to sound nice, and I want it to look nice. I know that what I see in my minds eye and what I'll see with my real...

the thing that makes me nervous is doing the binding!

nice interments on your web site!

Thank you that is what I wanted to hear!

Nice job by the wy! I'm considering ordering one and I'm getting all the info I can out of these older posts.

I know it's an old thread, but does the fret board lay flat no the top or is it rased like the traditional f5 mandolins?

and I think they are out of stock at the moment :( have you played, or built an IV kit mandolin?

thank you! I'll look to see what I can find.

Thank you!

Thank you! the more replies I see like this makes me see my folly. I'm currently looking at an IV build kit, though it won't have a wider neck necessarily. I can at least afford it, and have some...
