Nice tune and a smooth performance... the mando has a nice voice,
too.  What variety is it?

Thanks!  It's a Brentrup with--thankfully--a Will Kimble set up.  Hans 
is a great builder but...not as good at suiting the action to the player.

 There are very few, instrumental breaks, and the arrangements are

 It has an old-time flavor without being an old-time disc, you might

Re: New Duff 'Dola

2009-09-22 Thread mistertaterbug

The new 'dola is here! From first few days of play, it's showing very
good signs of being able to stick around a while. The 17 scale has
not posed a problem so far. I mean, one inch spread out over the whole
length doesn't seem to matter. I think the tension is better matched
across all the strings too. Right now there's very little relief in
the neck and the action is pretty low and it still kicks out the
sound. Plays in tune real well too.

More later. I might have to get some videos up when I get my nerve
up.
