If you like a wider than regular six string spacing (or regular tenor which would be similar), check out the Eastwood Warren Ellis Signature models. They have a good bit more space between the...

Thanks for the unboxing review! I look forward to your sound/playing report! I, too, am looking for a relatively inexpensive tenor. While I like the idea of the old Martins and Gibsons, I am not sure...
Have a safe, prosperous, and happy New Year!
I love this! I may adopt this philosophy, lol!
For all the closet banjo players (myself included), don’t be fooled by this ploy, lol! There is a conspiracy against us! If we must, we will go underground (but no so deep that the world won’t be...
Happy Thanksgiving!
I use an image of Banjo as my avatar on Banjo Hangout forum, lol!
Congrats, and enjoy it in good health!
+1 on the Zimnicki style! That is a good looking alternative!
I find myself playing my Redline Traveler flat-top much more than my Breedlove KO...
Beautiful mandolin, Spencer, and great playing/sound! Congratulations!
I am relatively new to this myself. I was somewhat in the same boat as you a year ago. From what I have read on here and other forums, the general consensus is that f-holes project better (throw...
I agree w/ Grimm and B381 above... I highly recommend mandolessons.com. It is a phenomenal resource for beginners.
Great looking mandolin!
You've got the gear, now start building the chops!
I like to play ITM, old time, fiddle tunes, generic folk, but I also like to sneak in the occasional Irish-ish punk music (Flogging Molly, Dropkick Murphys, Rumjacks, etc.).
Very nice mandolin, Daryl! Glad you are enjoying it! I'm in the same boat as Multidon in that I was pretty interested in that mandolin. Also like him, I would have been pretty upset w/ its set-up (or...
Same here... I think the first song I played on the mandolin was The Irish Washerwoman.
I use Dunlop Gel XH (1.2mm) for my guitar playing. From lurking here, it seemed most mandolinists preferred heavy picks due to string tension. When I got my first mandolin, the Dunlop Gel XH seems to...
Congrats!
Beautiful mandolin! Enjoy it in good health!
Link works for me... it is a little slow, but that could be more because all three of my kids are home and using the wifi, lol!
Nice looking site and some great looking instruments!
After years of guitar playing, I wanted to try something different, and mandolin spoke to me. However, when I finally got to try a few, I found the fretboard way too cramped. I ended up going with...
I like it, however, like Jim Garber and Mandokit, I thought the largest area was an advertisement. Now, with you having explained what it is, it makes sense.
Congrats, Daryl! I was looking hard at that one myself. Had I not just purchased a Breedlove K Oval hole the week before that was posted, I might have jumped at it. Those Aspen II have the higher...
Congrats on the MD-815V and welcome!
Congrats, Spencer, on the completed project/house and the awesome wife! Enjoy the well deserved vacation!
