This isn't the first time I've heard someone mention that the point digs into their leg and is uncomfortable, and I just can wrap my head around that. Does it weigh 20lbs? But, I also rest the point...
Marco Mancini, yes, that is the Gator case that I have used and like.
Another Gator user here and it has done the job nicely for me. I've even flew with it in the overhead compartment on a plane.
No need to wait, just open it up and enjoy it when it comes. I fall in love with my F5S's tone all over again every single day. Have fun! :)
I bought some picks from them a couple weeks ago and was impressed when they sent a personalized note along with my order. I would most definitely use them again when the need arises.
To add another question, I had once removed the screws from the tailpiece on my F5S and could not get the tailpiece to budge. Is there something more to it? I didn't want to put too heavy of a hand...
Nailing it lately? My 2014 NF-FS5 is pretty spectacular! I couldn't have picked a better first mandolin, and I am still inspired every time I play something on it. :)
I've had my set on since October 23rd, and they aren't giving up. They still sound great- maybe even better now. I play for at least an hour a day, sometimes more. The tone of these strings on my...
Very nice. Thank you for sharing with us! :)
Wow. Never heard of these guys before and now I can't get enough of them. Thanks for posting this!!
I'm a fan of Virtuoso cleaner as far as products go. I use it, and their polish (very sparingly) on my satin finished Northfield NF-FS5. The polish made it shine more than a satin finish should, but...
I have a BlueChip TAD-1R 50, and the Wegen TF140. With exception of my 1R corner on the BlueChip, the picks are exactly the same shape. The Wegen seems just slightly thicker.
I've got a Blue Yeti Pro that I love. Really great sounding mic!
The strings I replaced were less than a month old and were coated. If they needed changing, maybe it wouldn't have been such a PITA. In any case, it was worth it, and I owed to to D'Addario to put...
Finally got around to putting my set on a few minutes ago. (I hate changing strings). So far I really like them. They feel smoother. Tone is brighter than the heavy D'Addario coated strings I had on...
My 2014 still looks brand new, and STILL puts a smile on my face every time I think about it- When I play it, I'm grinning ear-to-ear. Tone to die for! :)
I got my F5S a few months ago and could not be happier. It was my first mandolin after playing guitar exclusively for many years. It's a really great instrument and I fall more in love with it every...
I was going to suggest a "-1R" just for that extra versatility. I bought a TAD-1R 50 for my guitar, and when I decided to learn how to play mandolin, it transitioned perfectly for me. I find myself...
Thanks! I bought used, and I guess the seller neglected to include the wrench. I appreciate the help. I messaged them on FB and never got a reply. Was trying to hold off on emailing them for such a...
I have a Northfield NF-5S and want to buy a truss rod wrench so I can make adjustments. Does anyone know the size of the nut? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
I really enjoyed this, and your other videos. So much talent! Thank you for sharing!! :)
I flew with mine today. I just carried it on and placed it in the overhead compartment. Didn't have any problems at all.
I couldn't be happier with this NF-FS5. The tone, the playability, the way it projects, sustains, and resonates. Granted, it's the first mandolin I've ever played, but I'm not new to acoustic guitar...
