I bought my two newest mandolins a Pava A4 and a MT2 with T-Tops for all the reported benefits listed above, without ever hearing one. And from my experience so far everything is true. I've pretty...
As well as not leaving the tuner on I would just add that you make your adjustment for the display ect. before clipping it on. This should help any prevent rubbing from constant adjustments, open...
That is good news ! :mandosmiley:
Thanks John ! I am indeed delighted. The arrangement and the key change are all Jay and Mollys, and I love all their work.:mandosmiley:
Here's a couple tunes on my new Collings MT2. Let me just say this mandolin IS everything it's said to be. Just a joy!:mandosmiley:

Thanks John, I should have mentioned she'll be 29 this week and she's 1 of 4 including one grandson.:mandosmiley:
Trying many different shapes and styles is best. I've had a Martin A since I was 6 and by the time I was grown that tiny little neck gave me physical problems with my left hand. It was and is just...
Thanks Chuck ! And thanks for that question. Prior to 2/19 I'd written maybe 4 songs. In 2/19 we were all enthralled by the battle of our beloved MC friend Ivan Kelsall. So inspired to get with it,...
