I am trying to talk myself into a Gibson A-jr to compliment my 1936 Kalamazoo KM-21.
While waiting for one to appear on the big auction site I noticed this one:...
Has anyone played one of the Epiphone EM-50s (A style) that were manufactured in the late 1960s and 1970s? #I`m just wondering as I see them for sale occasionally for a couple hundred, but have never...
Thanks for the advice, my original post was poorly drafted. I am not looking for a Gibson A9, just a decent mandolin to compliment my 1930s kalamazoo. I was thinking an eastman two pointer would be a...
I am considering the purchase of a 2008 Eastman MD805 D 2 Pointer mandolin, Can anyone let me know the quality of these instruments? The two pointer sure looks pretty, but are they on par with say a...
Audacity sounds very interesting. I'll give this software a try before I shell out hard coin for a looping maching - thanks very much for your input - it may have saved me $300...
Interesting - thanks for the info http://www.mandolincafe.net/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif
I am considering getting a MacBook (as my PCs only seem to last about 6 months before going squirrely) - how do you like Garage Band?
I am looking for some advice regarding recording/looping software or hardware.
I am considering purchasing a Boss RC-20XL Loop station for the sole purpose of recording my mandolin tunes and...
Hi all, I'm looking at options for another (can you have too many?) decent vintage mandolin.
What are general opinions regarding the old Martin A style with the round sound hole (representative...
I guess my real question is if the peghead logo looks genuine? I have never encountered one of the yellow silkscreened logos (1946 - 1947) and am looking for a bit of confirmation prior to bidding.

Hi guys (and gals), I'm just looking for your thoughts on this 1947 A50. I don't have one (so I guess through some twisted logic that means I need one).
Just looking for your thoughts.
thanks....
No I did't get it. I bought a 1920s Gibson Mandolin Banjo instead http://www.mandolincafe.net/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/laugh.gif
Like others I don't have much info on mandolas, but I have a late 1930s kalamazoo archtop mandolin. It's in original condition, and has a really truly amazing sound.
I paid about $450 with...
12 Fret - How do you figure?
Mr. Mando - what did you pay for the Ajr? I didn't see that auction. Feel free to reply by PM if you don't want to post the costs for all to see.
thanks
Maybe it was just me - but I'm used to seeing labels that look more like <a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/Vintage-Gibson-A-Jr-Mandolin_W0QQitemZ230143687157QQihZ013QQcategoryZ10179QQrdZ1QQcmdZView
Item"...
It might just be me and my paranoid ways, but the label on this 1920s Ajr looks pretty fresh when compared to others of the period. The serial number looks like it was just marked down the other day...
Just curious as I see a lot of old A-style Gibson mandolins (from the teens and 20s) with sunken tops (arches) for sale.
I know is usually attributable to a missing or broken brace but I am...
thanks...
mangorockfish - I'm using the three chord patterns found in this article (about half way down) as my C G and D. http://www.mandolincafe.com/bluegrass.html
I just need a list of the others so I...
Can anyone point me in the direction of a printable chop chord list? I have the three basic patterns down (G, C, D) but I am now looking for a printable (perferably one page) reference that I can use...
Actually according to a recent post the label does say Flatiron.
"This Flatiron Mandolin was built especially for [insert name here]"
I am just stressing this so people who don't know any...
That's probably a good thing then...for my wallet http://www.mandolincafe.net/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif
FD - thanks for the pic
I feel the pull of the dark side - I may now be forced to buy one of these...
