Welcome Mad4.
Burns. ooo ah. I'd love to see it too.
Dig in and let us know if we can do anything for you. I forgot to mention...we are having the fret.net picnic at your place this year.

Mandolin? Do you also play violin? Or as we in the midwest say, "fiddle"?
I can't count the mandolin players who are asked this. "They're tuned the same, aren't they?" is the standard question.
Yes, but have you ever tried switching from a 12 string guitar to a six, and then playing it with a bow? :R R
Welcome to the Fret.

Welcome M4T. My wife loves the mandolin. I wish I knew how to play one. Maybe we can hear it through the cyber link the other Fretters are using. You will enjoy ther Fret Net.
