rbpicker Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Copperhead Road is a great Steve Earle song that is mandolin driven. Check it out, Sal. You would do that well. Roger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Proclaimer888 Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Congrats on that Mandolin!! Owned a "Mini Mo" for a while. I believe the company was Mid Missouri Mandolins for a while before coming Big Muddy. Had fun trying to play along with some Zeppelin tunes and of course all of the Ozark Mountain Daredevils songs.......Enjoy that fine instrument!!

bobouz Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 as well as a 1923 F4 Your '23 F-4 would be more of a holy-grail for me than a '23 F-5. An absolute thing of beauty. On the other hand, if I had the F-5, I could sell it & buy a fleet of F-4s! In the meantime, my trusty '22 'A' will have to do. Not quite the bling, but all the tone!

Cougar Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Hey C...I listened to that video closely but can't hear the mandolin... Sounds like some single note stuff, comes in around second :40..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holiday Hoser Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 I have a very old mandolin I got from my Grandma. Found this wiki about the maker. John C. Haynes & Co. was a significant American maker of a wide variety of musical instruments in the late 19th century including mandolins. The company manufactured guitars sold under the Bay State, William B. Tilton, and Haynes Excelsior brand names. The company was set up by Oliver Ditson in 1865, and ceased guitar making operations around 1900, selling its facilities to the Vega Company. Off subject... has anybody have a clue why I can't imbed images into my posts like you veterans?

northcntryblues Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 'Has'nt Hit Me Yet' - Blue Rodeo Nice guitar/mando tune with a Gibby mandolin and a vintage Epiphone acoustic, and is basically an alternate national anthem up here in Canada, along with maybe 'Bobcaygeon' by The Tragically Hip, 'Sundown' by Lightfoot, or 'Four Strong Winds' by Ian and Sylvia.

Owned a c.1920 F-4 for a lot of years - now have an A-4 of the same vintage, which suits my style a little better. Love the bark and cut of the old F-5s, but don't play enough mandolin or have enough $ to consider that option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave F Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 I already sold off a few. Here's the few I have left. All but one will be leaving this year. I'll probably give away the two behind the Gibson and sell off the Mandocaster clone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice, Without knowing the changes to the building/tuning techniques developed by Loar, looks-wise the earlier ones are pretty close. I love the looks of those early 1900's.

You just need to put img tags on either side of it, like this: [img=https://i.imgur.com/Qstpq3M.jpg] That should give you this: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lars68 Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 I wish I had a mandolin and could play it like this: Check out the solo starting at about 2:30 in. UNBELIEVABLY GOOD! This one is not bad either by the way: Lars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j45nick Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 Chris Thile is probably the most versatile mandolin player on the planet. He can play anything, including a remarkable recording of the Bach partitas and sonatas. He bought that Lloyd Loar mandolin with a good chunk of his MacArthur "genius" grant. He may actually have two of them now. I first became aware of him when he was a teenager playing in Nickel Creek with Sara and Sean Watkins, which seems like a lifetime ago. Hard to believe that was almost 30 years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kelly campbell Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 Wow Sal - Congrats on on the mando, condolences on the yankees symbol. I've got a red sox one up here that's just the right size to cover it up if you want... says 'world series champs on it'. Serious though, awesome buy. I may be slow to the game, but starting to appreciate how to add texture to music with different instruments. Ha Ha, you beat me to the Yankee logo comment, being a Cub fan I was gonna harrass Sal a bit...seriously, nice Mandolin..good luck with it.

MorrisrownSal Posted January 30, 2019 Author Share Posted January 30, 2019 Thanks Bill and Kelly... Its a neat instrument for not a lot of scratch. Looks like I definitely made my potential second hand market for it limited! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
