I like it. I'll add it to the name list. It's like a thru hiker's trail name.

I've heard a guy in Rocheport builds Big Muddy. I think he use to be called Mid Missouri Mandolins (MidMo).

Hello!

I am working on an idea for a business. I want to focus on building mandolins and guitars, acoustic and electric in the $700 - $1,000 range. What are you looking for in that price range? If...

Didn't the Gibson DMMs have a perfume for the vintage smell? Maybe Bill came up with a coffee version.

One more signature last night: Sonya Isaacs. My parents were kind enough to take this along to the concert last night since I couldn't be there.

Q: What do you call a med student that graduates with a D?
A: Doctor

My point? Anyone can get just about any degree if they can put down the money, but it doesn't mean they're actually good at...

I made my own out of 550 cord I bought from the PX. Feels good, looks cool. And, if I'm ever in a survival situation, I can use it to tie up the banjo player for bait.

Ditto what Mike said. The string might be binding in the nut. The tension between the tuner post and the nut is more than between the nut and bridge. The string will come loose from the nut from...

Martin,

would you mind explaining how you attach your top/back to the sides? I've heard that end grain doesn't make the strongest glue joint. Are you using some sort of support inside other than...

Video? MP3? Anything?

I live in Beaufort. Been playing about 10 years but slacked off and want to get back into it. Play bluegrass mostly but dabble in a little bit of everything. PM me if you wanna meet sometime.

I appreciate it Barry. I'll definitely find you when I get down there.

I'm gonna be stationed in South Carolina for a few years. Is there much of a music scene in this area? Any good jam groups?

Thank,
Micah

Thanks HoGo. Always enjoy your posts.

I just got out of bootcamp and haven't touched any instruments in 11 weeks! Any recomendations for a good music store in Chicago or Great Lakes area?

I'll be going to Panama City and Ocean City, FL soon for training. Are there any good venues out there? What about jams? Once I'm able to get off base I'd like to get out and socialize a bit.

Here's Dierks alongside Tim O'Brien. Probably why they sound so close.

It sounded like it could be a good match for the tone I am going for, and it is a beautiful wood.

Hey everyone!

It's been a long time since I've been on here. You know how life goes... Good to be back!

Anyway, I'm in the process of building a 'cello. I'm gonna use Wenge for the back....

Silence! I Keell you!

Hey. I may be taking a vacation to Greensboro this summer. What are some good jams and music stores in the area?

The main reason that I would go is to take a look at the area to see if it would be...

Sounds like your bridge could need an adjustment. Chime your strings above your 12th fret, then pluck the string at the 12th fret. If the plucked note is sharper than the chimed note, then your...

I started about 8 years ago at the age of 9. I've had lots of good mando-memories since then.

It's senior picture time for me.

I was playing around with some wood a couple of days ago and decided to make a pick out of some ebony. The first one was too small to use for regular playing, but it was good for a test piece. It...
