Re: For Sale: Gavin Baird A4
Don, I think I know a fellow that might want just such an item. I'll send you his email address. Taterboy On Mar 28, 12:13 pm, Don Grieser adobeinthepi...@gmail.com wrote: I never thought I'd sell this one, but so it goes. According to Gavin, this is the mandolin that Peter Oshtrousko played that started their collaboration on the Baird Oshtrousko model. It's a monster oval, with an elevated fingerboard, 1 1/8th at the nut, and a fabulous quilted maple back. I'm going to be putting it up on the Mando Cafe classifieds later this weekend, after I shoot some photos. Thought I'd post it here and on CoMando first. Asking $2400.

Re: Need A Band Name
I remember him saying at a Country Gent's reunion show, about why they were doing the reunion shows: Why, there's tens of dollars to be made in this business! Looks like that wasn't a Duffey original...

Bonaparte
Got hooked on A.A. Gray's Bonaparte's retreat - I think Pete Seeger does it similarly, but frankly I'm not really up on fiddle tunes: only what is on the legacy ipod.. I was trying to quietly figure it out in regular tuning and it fits nicely into an F shape in regular tuning, apart from the drones. Then I checked out Mr Google who tells me DDAD... Is this possible? Can one do this on the mandolin without the whole thing rattling or exploding? Out of stubbornness I may have to just work out some way of doing it myself, but would be interesting to hear points of view. All answers please in Sonnet form or simple Iambic Pentameters if that is too challenging.

Sure DDAD is possible. The Low D is REALLY low and slappy. You could also do it as ADAD. Mark On Wed, Apr 1, 2009 at 4:16 PM, Robin Gravina robin.grav...@gmail.comwrote: Got hooked on A.A.
