A little rough for the money, the SOL, IMHO. Mine has the same exact bridge as do a couple pictured on the SOL social group. I, also, assumed it was homemade.
Mine is late 30's/early 40's with...
Yep, just trying to keep music alive. No biggee. Same with student guitars -- I find it difficult to charge a kid's parents $300 to repair a $100 guitar -- so I take the loss with the hope of not...
I know about those "friend" repairs....
Please do -- seems unusual, IMHO. :confused:
I'm hoping you're sailing around the world in a small craft, rather than going to prison...(then again, wouldn't you want the mandolin in either case?)...
Good points, especially when it comes to forumspeak.....:whistling:
I think on this forum we have a better than average grasp on language basics, especially when compared to other music and...
Hard to say without a picture. On the reply box upper row, third icon from end is the "insert image" choice.
$350 is in the range for a nice one. A few go for more. Many more go for much less...
Yes, but it supports a "charity" :)):)):)):)):crying:
NMC, but one of the all-time greats, IMHO.
Dickey Betts died today at 80 years old. RIP.
Always drill a pilot hole first that is smaller than the screw. I lubricate the screw threads with a bar of soap before tightening. (my Dad always used saliva, but soap sounds nicer if one of my...
There is an amazing amount of knowledge and experience freely given here at Mandolin Cafe to help players with the hobby. I don't always agree with everybody, but I respect their viewpoint. And, I...
If you can't get a refund, before I threw it in the trash I would squirt some wood glue in there and clamp it with a C clamp. Cost is zero, worth a try. I wouldn't worry about the fingerboard...
So much of what I say should be prefaced with, "for those old enough to recall..."
What about Tiny Moore?
60 years ago everybody tuned their 12-string acoustic to C# (and capoed for standard),...
nope, nope, nope....
no genders or names, please!
(well, I guess Jeff Mando is OK...:cool:)
Seems like an update of the old Thomas-Ginex fret leveling kit that has been available for the last 50 years...
not the best
no back binding

I agree. I think it is arrogant to give ourselves so much credit for being SOOOO creative. Sure, I've got a couple songs that I'm proud of and think every once in a while I can come up with a...
Recently in the news, Tesla settles autopilot fatality case. Apparently for an undisclosed amount -- I gave up after reading 4 online reports and none mentioned a figure. I'm guessing that means a...
OTOH, seller has been an eBay member since 1998 with 100% positive feedback. I'm guessing he just wanted to be cautious about disclosing the serial number for all to see, like many sellers do. ...
Magazines aren't what they once were. I subscribe to a half-dozen home handyman type magazines and some are lucky to hit 60 pages an issue, and some only come out every two months, at that. About...
Agreed. Some of these Stradolin's ring like a bell, feature 90-year old wood, and most are well under $500!
Isn't Fender still an American company?
Interesting!
