    Default Who thinks a Mandolin Cafe Patch would be a Good Idea?

    I would buy at least 3 of them! One for my old denim jacket, one for my traveling backpack, and one to glue onto my gator case with fabric cement.

    I'd much rather have a patch or three than a hat. I have way too many baseball hats.

    I would hate for one of my mandolins to spring a leak and me without a patch. I probably ought to have several on hand "just in case."

    I had a Mandolin Cafe sticker on a couple of my hard cases , along with several festival and luthier stickers, but pretty much always use TGI Extreme (sorry for plug) gig bags now.

    I guess a fabric patch with fabric cement as Sue mentions in OP would be a winner for me!

    As would a T-shirt.

    Reminds me of the time I approached a guy, in Melbourne airport, who was wearing a Gilchrist T-shirt and carrying a mandolin case.

    "Excuse me" I said, "Is that a Gilchrist mandolin in there?"

    "Yes" he said, then added almost as an afterthought, "I'm Steve Gilchrist".

    I know Nick. Unfortunately shipping of 1 mask at $24 costs more than the mask.

    A patch would be a good alternative "case sticker" for a gig bag or soft case (like those Gator Hybrid cases)

    I carry a canvas tool-pouch at work. A Cafe patch would look great on there.

    I'd buy at least two - one for my guitar gig bag and one for my mando gig bag. And probably an extra.

    Any input from Scott or the Mods? I have a Travelite case so a patch would be welcome.
