What a great show by these two, and some tasty playing from Mike on his Gilchrist F4. Great camerawork as well!

My A5 has carbon fiber rods in the neck, but no truss rod. I think this is how all Campanella mandolins are built, but I'm not 100% certain. My neck has been rock solid over the 12 years i've owned...

Swedish mandolin player here!

Honestly, I much prefer Eastman mandolins over the old Levins, at least for bluegrass or other acoustic settings where you want to be acoustically loud. The Levins...

Congrats on your new Campanella mandolin! They are beautiful instruments, and I really like the look of this one with the braz rosewood. I think the Due is the most beautiful Campanella model, it’s...

Cool, thanks. I think it's awesome M.O. got big enough for him to get a Loar. Well deserved!

Am I right when I think Andrew Marlin (of Mandolin Orange) bought a Loar that he is now playing in the band?

Anyone know more about this, and details about the Loar?

He is playing it here:...

Yes, we're all swedes. Born in the wrong part of the world perhaps? :)

Here's a toe tapping number for ya!

A little late for Christmas themed songs perhaps?

Thanks y'all! :)

And thanks Ivan for the kind words!

About the IV kit, it did become a dust collector the moment I got the Campanella, it just can't compare. I keep it in sawmill tuning but don't really get around...

Hey thanks everyone for checking it out. Glad you like it. (The Campanella does sound great doesn't it?)

I used to do videos more often before, but I've got little kids now and a 50 year old house...

Might as well post the other video I made today. This song is so hard! I've been playing it for such a long time (several years) but I still can't seem to get it just right. Do any of you play this...

Hi mandolin people, here's me playing Liberty on my Campanella A5. Enjoy!

Thanks for letting me know. I'll look into it. In my iTunes (Sweden) I can find the songs, but not the full album. Don't know what's up with that..

It just appeared in Spotify today, so maybe...

Hi guys,
I used to be a regular poster here but since a couple of years I've been more of a lurker.

Just wanted to let you know that my band Sideshow Stringband released a new record today,...

The recording was made a number of years ago, and he basically asked me to "noodle around". I did a few bluesy runs but it wasn't was he was after, so I just started on the stuff that made it to the...

Now for something a little different. My friend Nicklas Nygren makes brilliant games with beautiful music, and he recently released the soundtrack from his game Knytt Underground. Me and my mandolin...

Nice! Love that mandolin sound. It's truly a world class instrument. Hands playing it are not bad either. ;)

Great news Steve! It looks just right. I'm 3,5 years into mine and I really really like what comes out of it! I'm still very much in love!

Thanks all!
Randy, that's good to hear! :)

Here's another carol for you, hope you like it! Played on my newly acquired 1939 Levin octave mandolin.

That could be a scene from the next Wes Anderson movie!

Buxus: The arrangement is my own, the tune is a classic Christmas carol.

It's cross tuned in AEAE and with a capo on the 2nd fret.
