post a video of yourself

[clevin]

This is my first attempt at a collage video. The piece is an original composition.

nicely done - lets hear more!

mandolin is far away from my primary instrument as can tell... trying to thumb brubeck

and goofing off

[Lucas]

Very nice CB. I've never used my thumb when strumming. I'll have to give it a try. Was that second tune "Bluegrass Stomp"? Sounds a lot like it.

[CBFrench]

hey Lucas, I just play on the couch so I'm in no volume competition (ha) and I like the mellow tone of flesh and second tune was kinda sorta the stomp, I was just diddling around

Our praise team is working from home these days-- I am playing my 1912 Gibson A Oval. We each make a video to a click track so it is quite a trick to coordinate. Thanks for your time MC friends!

CBFrench, Great playing on that Pava. I just bought one and can't wait to get it. You are talented with that bluesy/jazz style. Thanks for sharing!

I just broke a string so I went on and changed them all, oh my goodness wish I could figure out an easier way and wish I had someone closer than 500 miles (Nashville) that could do a good setup and offer any suggestions even tho I'd be too ashamed to play around a real mandolin player...

CBFrench, You’re the real deal man! You have touch, style and timing. You do that Pava justice!

You are way too kind, I’m just learning a little as I go but I do like the Pava. I wanted a mandolin that was not bright with a nice full tone

Played a socially distanced gig over the weekend at a friend's local farm. Felt good to be in front of folks and out in the Vermont air.

[CBFrench]

sounds good guys...

[Traveling Tracks]

Early morning recording of some Bach......I need someone to do the second part of the duo.....looking for someone who can play this on banjo....

[redlineroots]

sounds good guys...

Thanks so much. We certainly take a few liberties on the melody (especially the 2nd or 3rd time through), but its keeps us on our toes.

That's quite the band you have there! Good to see you enjoying the music.

[Sue Rieter]

Love this hymn.

Just me, my 10 string mandolin and my firebowl just after 9.30 last night. The tune is Mull Of The Mountains.

[Dave Hanson]

Love it.

Not a great performance, but I wanted to share my new Pava Pro with the Varnish and Torrefied Top. I have been working on my double stops.

[Sue Rieter]

Wow that sounds great, and it looks like it's super easy to play!

[lflngpicker]

Sue, The action is so low and the curvature on the saddle is so carefully arched to match the radius of the frets— it is semi-radiused I would call it. Not flat, but a bit traditional with compound radius. The neck is a soft V shape and a bit less bulky than the more average size of say the Collings MT neck. I have noticed less strain on my left hand. At 65 I do get arthritis pain.

Skye Boat Song, A favourite chestnut! Recorded in the sugarbush where I do most of my best work (such as it is).

Beautifully played, Bill! Thanks!
