FWIW, I believe she now performs as Ashley Hoyer.

Try going to an actual bluegrass festival. There are tons of them, year-round, all across the country. Walk around. Yes, some of the jams will be like you described, but there will be plenty of...
I'm a fan. Really enjoyed seeing her live a few years ago - hope she comes back to my area soon. Here's another side of her entirely, no doubt posted here before, but I've always really liked this...
Reported to ebay as counterfeit.
I always find it interesting that two people can look at the same information and draw such different conclusions!
Here is one of those lists you mention. 16% is a substantial portion of the...
Very cool, thank you for sharing! Hugely talented person.
Living the dream! What an amazing group of people to be around, listen to, and learn from!
Keep in mind that these are used prices, not what the luthier charged (which may have been more or less). Somogyi is almost in a category of his own, between his unique voicing and his intricate...

That 12-string is definitely an outlier, being from very...
Who do you consider to be more "highly regarded" among current acoustic players? As in, liked by more people, and more respected among his peers? Genuinely curious.
How on earth is it shoddy manufacturing when MANY of these old mandos are still being played regularly, over 100 years later? Please get back to me in 113 years with an update on your Hora, lol!

Martin sells a product called “Luxe Guitar Detailer” that is a single-use, wax impregnated cloth. On the other hand, my Martin came with instructions to only use plain water when cleaning the...

I saw them live a few weeks ago. That’s how they performed, all around one mic. Fantastic.
I also saw Watchhouse (fka Mandolin Orange) a few weeks before that, also playing to one mic. Truly...
They do a great version of “Gold Rush”. The song on HOCS is called “The Gold Rush”, and doesn’t seem to have any direct relationship to the old BG standard other than a (very) similar name.
For...
I just saw this lineup last month here in SB. Stellar musicians, one and all!
Pisgah makes some very well-regarded banjos using persimmon fingerboards and tone rings. Be worth pursuing further, IMO.
Oh, c’mon! Everybody knows that Gibson used the three Phillips-head truss rod cover for that special run back in whenever! Totally worth the extra money right there! I hear they’re suing everyone...
Here's a really nice version of "Little Wing":

Wow! What a deal! I would've jumped on that, too. Enjoy it in good health.
Small world! I've actually been using your tutorial on this song, trying to get this one under my fingers. Spoiler alert: your version is MUCH better than mine!
Nice performance, and thank...
Well put. I'm going to have to borrow that one!
