Put your mind to it brother. If you can manage to master those strings, the Mandolin is such a pleasent sound.

wow....that's really cool. my grandfather played the mandolin too, and he just passed away a few months ago. i've been working on it for a while^^. one thing that helped a lot was i bought a mandolin chord book from hastings...i'm sure you could get one anywhere...but it helped a lot!^^

keep at it! it's TOTALLY worth it^^. don't know if you listen to relient K any, but on their Apathetic EP the accoustic version of Be My Escape starts with a mandolin^^..pretty neat

God bless^^

4Given,

I'll bet there are some good mandolin players in North Carolina that qualify as good teachers as well. Latch on to one of them and go for it.

When we named our first child Amanda Lynn, we did not realize until she was two years old that her name sounded like a musical instrument

Amanda Lynn - - - a mandolin


She's beautiful

4 given, I think that is awesome...I just know you can do it. God always makes a way for His children to use the gifts He's given....

God bless you. You can learn to play the mandolin even if it is hard.


Also.....soul drummer, is your real first name Bryce? I love that name. My oldest boy's name is Bryce, and he loves music. He plays several musical instruments and is attending Penn State University.
