    I am a strat fan, what can I say. all you need to change tone in an electric is a pickup. I gave away the octave mandolin I built to a buddy. My woman looked strange at me after he left and I just said, I needed room on my stands for a mandola.... I have room on the wall for one more hook too...

    Not much recording. I work 12hr shifts and they fired a guy so we have been all covering his shifts. Crazy hours. That said I have been looking at a few mandocellos. I think Walt at Gypsy Music will be my next luthier purchase. His stuff is very nice and prices are reasonadle.

    **NEW SUPPLIER: CANADA WIDE DEBUT!** - The Gentlemen's Reserve @ www.grbc.co

    OK I have had zero contact from this vendor nor have they even accepted my money. so I am afraid if there is nothing done when I get home in the morning from work, I will have to cancel this, my first ever order (and fairly sizeable one I might add). I can't wait sorry. It has been almost a...

    Hey guys, loving all the pink F. I am a huge fan and have every recording they ever did right back to 1964... so I picked up the godin a8 yesterday... wow what a sweet mandolin. while talking to my guitar guy I asked him to find me a mandocello... he said they had this Gold Tone octave mandolin...

    Been playing the mandobird a bit since it came back. it plays fine. I've decided it will be my garage mandolin and for doing some heavy rock type stuff (adding fx). the crack in the finish doesn't bother me as much as I thought and I know I can make it look right... still waiting for the godin...

    I learned from a pdf booklet I got on setting up mandolins. use a razor blade first to start the lines... I'll just find me a piece of moose antler or something to make one from so do I get another mandobird for the novelty? or skip right over it for the Godin. I doubt the mandobird will get...

    cheap nut file. buy a set of feeler guages for automotive (setting valves etc). take a triangle file and cut slots in the feeler guage to make it have teeth. select the one same size as the string and you have a perfect sized nut file

    well I got the mandobird back today. the top closest to neck has taken a hit. there's a small dent and the finish has a half inch crack. now here's my dilemma... the cracked one has a new bone nut and new plug installed. intonation is very good and so is the action. I will have to change the...

    Let's be honest, Jokesmoke is basically unflavoured nic juice. It's mild and palatable. I vape 12mg now as it's enough for me. I tried old favourite vapes from days past this week and they gagged or choked me. I used to vape jokesmoke at 36mg as well, so you might consider upping the nic if you...

    well still no word on the mandocello so I might have to write Don Kawalek again to see how the kit is coming along. I still play the octave mandolin a lot. so tell me this isn't pretty. spruce front, mahogany back. looks nicer than the blond to me

    Hi guys, just checking in. The new guitar is sure sweet. just tweaking it a bit... and ya I buy 3 sets of strings at a time for each instrument so I can change often. these new ft74's on the mandolin are amazing strings. flat tops, not flat wounds. quite bright but crap doesn't stick in them...
