We have such a diverse group and as typical with many other forums, questions are asked and we have multiple responses...some based on opinion, some based on experience and of course some based on conjecture...
So in light of the many variables, where do we all stand ? I ask this because as is the case on other forums, folks ask questions looking for information or advise on various topics ( instrument related) and the responses vary from PRO's to people who don't even play !
So who are we ?... experience, no experience, novice , bandstand, no bandstand..bedroom..solo, duo, trio, band. etc..any instruments , everything's game...How long have we been playing music ?
I'll start.. +40 years on the bandstands , still active weekly gigs.. Guitars, Dobro,Steel Guitars. My serious Mandolin study began early last year. Could I gig on Mandolin ? Sure but it would not be on par with many of the players here, not novice but not intermediate either, somewhere in the "I can get by and hold my own " mode.
