    Daryl - You and Mary ought to look into setting up as mandolin matchmakers. Between the two of you, there is a world of knowledge and experience regarding hunting for, assessing, and purchasing mandolins. Heck, you have been responsible over the years for two that have gone through my hands...I'm sure there will be more to follow.
    Congrats on the newest addition.

    TME now has a barely used Duff A5 replete with Calton Case for sale. Not on the website. But it's a nice one.

    She definitely knows where the good stuff is, and has the knowledge of playing/owning a lot of makers instruments, and was instrumental in me getting the Kimble.
    She made mention of it before it made it to the shop-soon as i saw the video of it, i knew it was the one. Called and had Dan hold it overnight with a deposit until i arranged the rest of the funds. I don't think it would have lasted long and i would have missed.
