Hi all,
I have this country band I play mandolin with. Acoustic mandolin works fine (for bluegrass related and slow songs) and so is clean electric mandola for shuffles and swing tune (jazzier playing, clean humbucker tone). Not exactly up to Tiny Moore standards, but hey, I get by.
The problem are the rock songs (CCR stuff, Sweet Rome Alabama....) I cannot make the thing sound anything like convincing rock electric guitar, particularly for rythm playing. Finally swiched back to acoustic for these tunes which works better (thanks, Sam!) I tried everything including electric octave mandolin but I canīt get that sound. Itīs bad with the rockabilly stuff but even worse with rock. Any sucess stories out there?
thanks Klaus
