    Re: Ebay: Copy of a Lloyd Lane!

    I have to say, I like the old one better. But I always liked that one, whereas many folks didn't. I guess I'm weird. :grin:

    Re: do new strings need to be trimmed down?

    Re: Rob Meldrum's Mandolin Set-Up eBook

    I just contacted Rob to get his ebook the other day. Thank you Rob! Mandolin can be challenging enough as it is. Taking the "mysteriousness" out of setup to ensure the best possible sound for a...

    Re: Ebay: Copy of a Lloyd Lane!

    Yeah, I noticed that squidolin.com was taken as well, but not working. :( But lots of the other domain suffixes are still available if someone is inclined to put up a site honoring all the unholy...

    Re: Ebay: Copy of a Lloyd Lane!

    I don't want to be the bearer of bad news, but we might need to come up with a different name. Looks like squidolin is already taken by the supposedly self-teaching violin:...

    Re: Ebay: Copy of a Lloyd Lane!

    I'd wonder how long it takes to do these kinds of ornate inlays. It's got to take a lot of patience, not to mention skill. I assume the cost in time and materials is fairly prohibitive hence lots...

    Re: Ebay: Copy of a Lloyd Lane!

    Re: Ebay: Copy of a Lloyd Lane!
