    Re: Bagpipes are bad for your health.

    My son, upon hearing my chanter practice CD, proclaimed, " I didn't know dying seals made recordings." I went back to the mandolin and haven't looked back, though I still love to hear the pipes.

    Re: Loar LM 700 vs Eastman 815

    I've owned both an Eastman 815 and a "the Loar" LM-700 VS. Nothing wrong with either mandolin, but the "The Loar" beat the 815 hands down on tone which is why I sold the 815. The 815 played easier...
