I just received Rob’s setup ebook....much thanks Rob, so good of you to do this!!

I contacted Strings and Beyond with my question....the answer is A and E singles are not available in NY Steel, only the high carbon steel.

Hi, from what I gather, A and E singles are made of high carbon steel. Are singles available in NY steel?

Just wondering if there are any recommendations for experienced setup people in Victoria, BC? Thanks....

I own #30 from December, 2010 which I bought from Jamie after Tom Rozum traded it in on a newer one. It's a very nice mandolin, loud, clear, powerful, great note separation and tons of fun to play. ...

I'd say first is the Gibson, second is the Kentucky.

My thoughts are with you and your family Joe. All the best and have a quick recovery.

I guess I should chime in here as I'm fortunate enough to own Stanleys #8, #17 and #18. They're all great mandolins with a similar tone, heavy on the midrange and all are very loud. And like John...

My 2004 A9 has fretboard dots which I believe are original - I'm the second owner but I don't think any modifications were made before I bought it. According to the Gibson numbering system, mine was...

mnormand - I have the box plus a package insert that came with one of my Intelli IMT-500's. #Unfortunately there's zero contact info on either. #The only possible hint was "CE - Made in Korea"....

Looks great Bruce and I'm sure it sounds great as well. #I'd love to hear a review and see more pics.

I recently bought a used Mid-Mo M-0 from a cafe member but he couldn't find the tailpiece cover. #I kind of like having one on so I contacted Mike Dulak from Mid-Missouri (now Big Muddy) to see if he...

Steve - Mandolin in the Cow Camp is all instrument old-time but so are The Old Style Mandolin - volumes 1 and 2. #If you're looking for old-time mandolin, I'd recommend them all.

I've been listening to these discs since they arrived yesterday and agree wholeheartedly with Mando Johnny - this is great music played exactly as it should be. #Skip's tone is amazing. #What is that...

I've been fortunate enough to play several Sawchyn O-2's (F4's) and they all sounded great, including the one Butch Baldassari used on The Mandolin Tribute to Andrea Bocelli. #That one had a longer...

Hey Brad, great sounding and great looking A2. #Same goes for your S5 on the other thread. #I have a few Sawchyns myself - an S5, A2 custom and Beavertail deluxe. #Peter's a very talented luthier for...

I just got a T-shirt from Chris today as well - cool design and good quality too. I've had Stanley #8 for about 7 months now. Great mandolin and great tone right from the start but it just keeps...

I've got #8 and think it's great. I had the opportunity to choose either #7 or #8. Chris played them both for a few days and told me they sounded pretty much identical - so I chose #8 because I liked...
