The heel of the neck is gorgeous. It's like when you've got a favorite car and are used to its curves and chassis and consider those the only way the car can be. Then the new model comes out and...

If it was me and I really enjoyed the mando, and really thought I was gonna keep it a very long time I would bring it in tomorrow. Although I've got to say I notice fret wire size way before I...
There is no way
Thanks for sharing! Really neat listen.
Going to the homepage with gizoogle and reading the jazzmando.com blurb, and about Dizzy grisman performing in Nashville Citizzy made me laugh so much my sides hurt
Start an expensive seminar on Brotherly Love. There's 10,000 of your neighbors that don't know anything about it!
If that doesn't work open up a cheesesteak shack. You'll be swimming in...
I ran into the same ball ended string problem with an emando awhile ago. John Pearse makes a little string thingy that can add ball ends to any string set. Besides that there are some glue options....
Last night I was at that Del and Dawg show. Dawg said Ronnie is the best bluegrass mandolin player right now. For the dawg to even think let alone say that, that means a lot! I thought that was...
It was pretty laid back. But I went to City Winery. And if you've been to one of their places (I think there are 4 across the states) when they take the tables out and sell seats instead of tickets...
Got to see Billy Strings and Don Julin open for Dawg and Del last night. my guitar mandolin duos craving was incredibly satisfied! If they are coming to your town I'd say go.
Not to derail the...
Neat song in my opinion. I think this is the kinda thing that makes the Punch Brothers standout. Definitely not my favorite song of theirs but it makes me curious to what the rest is gonna sound...
Thanks for all the great responses. I appreciate the sharing. I've got a lot to delve into this week! Lot of collaborations I hadn't found on my own. Right now I'm listening to Norman Blake and...
Thanks for all the replies. I'm actually seeing Billy and Don on Sunday but I can't admit to owning or really listening to a lot of the stuff they put out together. Thanks for all the suggestions...
Not quite sure where to put this. Even understand its a bit of a needy thread seeing as how I have no reward. But I seem to have figured out that I can learn more from listening to how a mandolin...
I threw them on an oval hole I primarily play that the neck meets at the 12th feet and doesn't have an adjustable truss rod. The reccomended guage was close to j73s because of it(which is what I...
Sounds like you've got your hands on a nice musical partner!
I really dig that wheat inlay though it's a nice touch on a different take for headstock inlays. How's that truss rod cover stay on?...
Nice playing and all! That mandolin sure does yell.
An Ebola song sure is uncommon.
But what I think this list achieves, and I'd add achieves damn well. Is appeasing to it's known audience. That's 10 songs the frequents oughta know well. I'd be surprised if guitarplayer.com's main...
When I watched that movie I always thought it sounded like more than 3 guys singing and one guy picking a guitar!
It's reference to david grisman playing everything in a minor key makes it relevant here.
It's the jethro burns song "cept old bill"!
Love that song
Thread MVP. I laughed
Only thing I could think is he used the same tone bar method Lloyd Loar first used on mandos and archtop guitars in the 20s. It would fit the TBLL at least.
I suppose its a variant on this:

Is that a rusty aluminum nut?
