Don, I think I know a fellow that might want just such an item. I'll
send you his email address.

 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.

 Thanks.

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

2009-04-01 Thread Robin Gravina
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.
