Hi,
I was wondering two things:
What is the best way to package a mandolin for shipment (contained in a Travelite Case)?
Also, I need an estimate of shipping costs withing the continental...
Once in awhile I dig out a copy of Ozzy's Tribute to Randy Rhoads CD. It's awesome.
Did i miss something or was SoundARt giving away an IPOD in March?
Haven't heard anything about it since I entered.
I don't know what would have been the first one I ever heard, and I started listening to Doc Watson before I was into 'bluegrass' proper. However, I remember the first song that really grabbed me. I...
Wowzer! What a mandolin!
I love the back color, and its contrast with the top. However, I almost thought it was a black top, but it isn't. How dark is it!?
I'm happy for you, but also sick with jealousy. Most of my relatives that live near me(in-laws, go figure) don't think too much of the mandolin, let alone own one, let alone own a beautiful old F4!...
Ok, maybe "takes the cake" was a little strong. But it has a seat at the table.
I think this one takes the cake. #I don't even know what to say about it. The mystique lies in "Who does your album art?"
fredfrank,
Got me! #As you can see, I have a hard time putting my fingers in proper position on this mug...the graphics are so small....how is that supposed to help?! #I thought the mug would make...
My bad. The guitarist IS holding a G obviously. I guess I just looked at the girl in the orange sweater on 'my' left, adn her fingers seem planted in the middle of the neck.....
Anyway, here is an...
THat's cool. My daughter's kindergarten class has special 'letter' days, too. Since her name begins with L, she got to bring in special "L" things, and I don't have a Lute.
I might find out when...
Nice mandolin jtauxe. Enjoy. How does it sound?
Found it Don. Thanks. I'll try it later tonight.
I think the Canyon Waltz recorded by Don Greiser on the mp3 page is great. #Is this an original or is there music available for it? #Don?
I suspect with some work, i might get close by ear....
Here is the wikipedia on him. #Maybe you folks want to expand it?

John Duffey (March 4, 1934 - December 10, 1996) was a bluegrass music innovator and musician.
Known as "The Father of...
I don't have any Seldom Scene recordings (gasp!) but have been hearing them here and there. I really like Duffey's playing and singing. I think "wait a minute" is a great song too.
Anway, how did...
Sorry about not giving you a live link to click - I can't get that feature to work using the buttons, and when I tried to do it manually, it didn't recognize one of the quotation marks I was using.

It does not look like a Gibson, but I certainly am no expert.
I'm sure this board has its share of deer hunters who wait a long time in a tree stand for that perfect shot. Now, they have an option for at least bringing their mando with them (although playing it...
Sorry for the short post. David Holt is interviewing Wayne Henderson in his shop and Wayne is explaining how he builds a guitar. I thought someone just got a Henderson mando,so I thought I'dshare.

I don't know much experience you have with stringed instruments, but the bridge on a mandolin is just held in place by the strings, so before you take off all your strings, you might want to mark...
Stellar!
I'm in the same boat. Looking at others that pick it up faster than me and wondering "How?!" Anyway, i do believe the original question was just asked for the sake of hearing other's stories.
