I had bought a Mandolin online back in 2004. Not knowing anything about the instrument, I came across this website. There was an announcement about an upcoming festival in Lawrence, KS. So I got the...

Right after I bought my Breedlove crossover online from Guitar Center, I went over to Tandy leather company and bought a leather shoelace to tie my strap to the headstock. That was a couple or three...

I'm glad I was able to see him perform at Red Rocks this past summer. I saw him perform several years ago at Broomfield High School as a benefit to help purchase musical instruments for their music...

Thank you Al. My mom has a metronome that she used to help teach me some piano back in the early 1960's. I on the other hand went high tech. I downloaded one off on my smart phone. However, when I...

Hi all, been a member of MC since 2004. My music history started somewhere around the fifth grade when I joined the school band at Center Elementary school in Kansas City, MO. My mom wanted me to...

I couldn't in good conscience buy something worth that much for twenty bucks. However, having said that, I probably wouldn't spend over $500. for any mandolin. I have a Breedlove crossover that I got...

I'm nearly 61 and have assorted aches and pains. From 2002 until I retired in 2011, I worked as a painter in the facilities department at the County. That job was tough on my body. I now am doing...

I don't own any Blue Chip Picks, but I do collect picks. I have a friend who travelled to England and he gave me a couple of picks from Liverpool where the Beatles recorded. Then later he went to...

I believe the late great Charles Sawtelle was in that band? KILLER band name....I've thought about stealing it. I'd love to hear that album.....

I was at Swallow Hill Music last evening in Denver...

I sold an Epi this last year on ebay and now I kind of wished I had kept it. It was an F style I bought from Guitar Center after I gave away a Johnson mandolin to one of my kids. The Johnson was my...

Don't that just have Mandolin picker written all over it?

For Xmas I got a book from my Mother, Corelli's Mandolin. I saw the movie awhile back so was familiar with the plot. It was hard for me to read about the terrible times in WWII. I'm a baby boomer,...

I'm working on Blackberry Blossom too. That run at the beginning where you play the fifth fret A string which is a D note then play the open E then second fret F# 3rd, 5th, 7th etc. I am trying to...

I did my first string change this weekend on my Breedlove crossover. It's got a tail piece I hadn't worked with before. The first string I changed, the string kept coming loose. I'm going to try the...

Ff holes are a smaller target for losing picks.....I kind of digressed there I see......

I don't like oval holes for one reason. I'm forever losing my pick in the carcass of whatever fancy firewood I happen to be playing with that has a circle or an oval hole. For me it's not about sound...

I heard this song years ago on a Bluegrass show on Public Radio, and it keeps popping in my head from time to time. I wasn't even around in 1949, (I'm a '56 model), and I've never been to Tennessee...

The instrument on the mantel? I have no idea. About ten years ago I developed an interest in playing the mandolin. My Mom and Dad bought it on eBay. It has twelve strings and I woudn't dare tune it...

The thing I like about the crossover is the wider nut. At one time when I could still jump, I could almost dunk a...

I got my Breedlove Crossover Mandolin the other day, and am absolutely loving it, and I have a video to prove it! I took it...

TheCoop, I figure if relationships go bad, I still have my little epi Mandolin....Been there done that myself. Hang in there, and have a Happy New Year!

Thank you MiG-19. This is my very first You Tube recording, and was mainly trying out this new Lumix camera I bought my wife for Christmas. I downloaded this video editor software, and then found the...
