My friend/neighbor Travis Burch (www.myspace.com/travisburchmusic) just bought a Voight Mando and it arrived today. We played it all morning. Amazing stuff. He bought an A-style and has another F...

So what is the difference soundwise between hard and soft maple?
I want one of those things for my Collings MT2. What is the best thing for me to do to find one that will fit mine? I am in nashville, TN. I am sort of a newbie to the tone guard world but I have...
I just emailed Collings and they got back to me within the hour. On some of the earlier mandolins they wrote "S" indicating a Sunburst finish, but no longer do that. They said that all of their...
Thanks. Is there any difference between Hard and Sugar Maple as far as tone or anything?
I noticed on a list from another post about serial numbers, some people with MT2's from about the same time had MT2H on the label. I think sunburst sounds like a good idea for the MT2S. I can't find...
oooh sassy. you are probably right.
posted this on the end of an old thread but thought I would try a fresh one for the question. The MT2 i just bought is #124 signed by Bill Collings. On the label it says MT2S. Does anyone know what...

It is an MT2. The finger rest was done by the guy from Nugget. The former owner was a guy who works at elderly named Brandon Foote who is in this really great Michigan duo with a lady named Laura...
Collings
Arrived last week. played it at Suwanee Springfest this weekend and loved every second!
I will be there with the Drifters. Didn't know about the workshop and I am definitely looking forward to going for the first time. Just bought a Collings MT2 from a friend on here and had it next day...
Hello,
I was just wondering if there are any builders in the Nashville or surrounding areas that would take a young (25 year old) student under their wing. I have three generations of woodworkers...
Hello There!
Anyone from the Mando Cafe message boards going to be at Folk Alliance in Memphis this weekend? I am about to head out. My band is playing a couple showcases but I will be there all...
So I went to Gruhn Guitars in Downtown Nashville today and played every mandolin there. Is it just me or are Collings Mandolins the best things being made today. They had the best tone I have ever...
Yeah it was two different guys. The banjo guy was a banjo collector from California. Apparently he has a vault full of collectors items back at home and was here to buy some special thing at Gibson....
Hello mandobando,
Glad to hear from you. Thanks man. I am going to try and make it to the Stringdusters show tomorrow night. I have a feeling it will be a lot of fun. Clayton went backstage and...
Hello All,
You won’t believe this! Just a weird story from playing in The Farewell Drifters. We have been playing a lot recently in the Nashville area. For a little while we were doing about 3 or...
Which should be further back in the compensation, the G or the E?
Is this cutting something that I could do myself easily? Also, How would I add more to the D string? I am in love with the strings I use now so a change is probably a bad idea. I use the J-74s...
I play a michael Kelly Mandolin and it has what I believe is called a compensated bridge. I am trying to record and notice that the A and D string are out of tune when played up the neck. This also...
