Violinists play the first half of the chord, then the second, hitting all four strings in the process. It's not perfect but it works.You get a "build."

I worry about this myself as I am 63 and care for my Dad who is 94. My fingers have kept up (for how long, I wonder.) but his have given out in a lot of ways. He is very independent for someone his...

I just use a leaf bag. :)

Looks like a keeper.

Polytune is a better design for guitar.

The case is its place.

Glad they seem to be okay. They're a very talented group.

When I first looked into getting a Mandolin, the late Stan Jay of the former and famed Mandolin Brothers in Staten Island, advised me not to waste my money on anything less than all-solid-wood...

Don't have a very specific answer, though the experts here are likely to, but if there would be no Bluegrass music without Bill Monroe, than you have to figure F5s would not be all that popular....

So you can't just flip it and play it back the other way? I've done that with picks that warp.

Favorite's a loaded word which might conjure Sam Bush. Chris Thile and Sierra Hull are really blazing a trail these days, but there are too many to mention that I love to listen to and to try to...

I love my Blue Chip CT55. I have several sculpted Primetones but don't really like the sound or feel. You get what you pay for. My favorite is still a Red Bear, though they are brittle and can break....

I saw them available on GreatBearTrading.com

Play the heck out of it! Congrats.

Is there anyone there teaching mandolin content?

Good to hear she had such a strong recovery. Keep picking!

It's amazingly rare that someone succeeds in stumping the Cafe Brain Trust. Here, Scott himself appeared to hold the answer. :)

So Roland makes things like the JC 40 which is essentially a clean amp witha chorus effect, one of them has 6.5" speakers. Is this a good thing, or something to steer away from with an emando?

As a kid, I didn't know what a mandolin was, but I used to pick my violin with a guitar pick and play along with Beatles and Moody Blues records, etc. My friends joked about it but I was able to...

My son lives in Rochester, MN, and I'm always in shock at the temperatures he faces this time of year.

Then, I'll need on for me that matches my mandolin's. :)

It looks good but I have a beer budget with champagne tastes.
