Barry Bales on bass for sure. Isn't that Stuart Duncan on fiddle?
A little late to the thread but just wanted to chime in that I'm the proud owner of #21. Bought it four years ago and have no plans to get rid of it. I get compliments on it wherever I go.
I still have my Fullerton Hammonton from back then. It was actually my first mandolin and think I paid around $179 for it. That would barely pay the tax on my latest one, lol. Still it was a good...
If I had to have my wife's permission to buy something I'd be too embarrassed to tell anybody.
So would you play this with a slide? :))

Just looking for some history on a guy named Roy P Jones (deceased) from Charleston, Arkansas who built some nice mandolins and guitars back in the 70's. I own one of his Gibson F-5 copies and would...
Does anyone know what year Gibson stopped building Flatirons at the Nashville shop? When did they introduce the current pac-rim version?

Good question. Wish folks would give a straight answer.
When I bought my 515 from Janet Davis Music a couple of years ago there were two 615's on the wall next to it. I had the funds to buy either of them. Even though I went there to buy a 615, that...
I enjoy playing guitar about as much as I do mando. I have two Tennessee Flattops made by Mark Taylor in Old Hickory Tennessee, a rosewood and a hog. Great guitars.
I'm with Capt. E. For the money you quoted I'd go used and try to find an old Jap or Korean made mando with the inclusion of an Alvarez. If you could stretch just a little past your upper limit you...
Is this what is known as birds eye Maple? Keep in mind a flash was used in two of the pics. Its actually darker when you're holding it. Thanks.........

Does anyone know anything about these mandos? Did a search and couldn't find anything. Didn't see anything on the Weber website either.
Wow, thanks Joel. After reading all those posts I guess I should have asked what is the most "common" pronunciation!
As in the pick of course. Use one all the time but not sure how to say it. I can see several different possibilities.
Got the first four changed. Didn't actually take this long. It took 5 minutes to stop the bleeding on my ring finger and another 5 to find a band-aid that was suppose to be in the medicene cabinet....
Ok, go ahead and call me a whiner. I just changed the strings on three of my guitars and actually enjoyed it, now I'm about to change strings on my mando and dread it. Much more of a hassle although...
Thanks for the replies. Very encouraging. I just realized I misspelled "learning" on my post title and now its in every post reply. How embarrising! Bet some of you were wondering why I would want to...
Been playing guitar for years, consider myself to be an "ok" rhythm player. Good at chords, runs, etc.. Been playing mando for a year or so. Have memorized 25 or 30 fiddle tunes from tab and thought...
Ouch!! I feel your pain. You want to keep it looking brand new as long as you can. But it's gonna happen sooner or later. I was the same way when I bought mine but now that it has a few scratches...
Been learning this tune for a few days, just not sure how it's pronounced. I assume its named for the Scioto River in Ohio. Any of you locals up there know?
Sorry Mike. She joked about her dress malfunction all during the show. Looking back I guess it was rather tacky. Both her dress and my comment.
Saw her at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville on the 10th. The show and the acoustics were great. She had a hard time keeping the top of her dress up. Sort of odd for a bluegrass venue but sadly she...
Placed my last order for strings with Elderly after buying from other online string stores for years. Prices very good as well as shipping. Check them out.
Ok I have to put my 2 pennies in. I don't post a whole lot because I don't know a whole lot and I don't post about things I don't know about. But I do know a little about this. I a/b'd a LOT of...
