I'm itching to get an Irish tenor banjo for that very reason, but I'm saving up for a Martin guitar right now. You're so right about the nature of the intervals it makes finding and creating melodies so intuitive.
I really need to make more time to spend with mine. No biggie to me just a little mojo! Those sound like some fine upgrades you've made to yours.
#Kentucky mandolin km180s crack
It had been returned with a treble f-hole crack which I repaired very easily. Yep, I think i got the very last one they ever had for $99. This makes moving around the fingerboard easy and logical. The pattern is simple and repeating, and the interval between one pair of strings and the next is a constant. One thing I like about mandolin (which I learned first) is that scales are more intuitive than on the banjo. I've played this side by side along mandos costing MANY times more and I honestly like it better.
Over the years I've had the fingerboard radiused and refretted, made a set of Cocobolo tuning knobs, added a solid tailpiece (inexpensive one, of course), wood armrest, Tonegard, and double piezo pickup. This 8 1/2 x 11 KENTUCKY MANDOLIN brochure consists. I use it for gigging in a little Irish/Scottish band, where I also play pennywhistle. Offering the Original Vintage circa 1983 KENTUCKY MANDOLIN brochure Grisman, KM-DAWG, KH-DAWG shown. I've largely gone back to guitar playing, but I owe a huge debt of gratitude to the mandolin for inspiring me to try to get back into making music after a long, long time.Īha! Another Fullerton Gloucester owner! I got one for something like $169 just as they were selling out and I LOVE it. I'm not any good, but yeah I'm surprised at how adept I've become at moving back and forth between instruments. I have several inexpensive mandolins, my favorite being a an all solid wood Fullerton Gloucester F model that I snagged for next to nothing.
