    Congratulations to Eli Wildman (The Wildmans) for his second win of the Galax Old Time Fiddler's Competition in the Mandolin category! This year his performance was "Brilliancy" on his Sorensen SX Stratus mandolin --



    Eli is currently a second year student at the Berklee College of Music.

    Well-deserved win. Good run on a good mandolin on a challenging number.

    And a shout-out to the 2nd place winner, Vince Bullins. Vince is undergoing some physical challenges right now which make his contest performance all the more amazing. Looking forward to jamming with him at his cuz's mandolin camp next week.

    Steve,
    Are you bringing any AX models to IBMA this year? Would love to try one.
