A Good Addition to a Musician's Arsenal
As a musician with guitar, piano, bass, ukulele, and harmonica in my repetoire, I was looking for the next step musically. I was looking for something to play bluegrass music, to expand my horizons, so I looked at the mandolin. Being a music student, I wanted something I do buy with a VERY limited income, and this mandolin fit the bill. I decided to give it a shot, and realize that starter ...

Start Playing Today
Tottle starts with some musical fundamentals -- general points like reading TAB and musical notation, time signatures, rhythm, etc., as well as mandolin-specific issues like tuning. If you have another instrument under your belt, this makes quick reading and then Tottle immediately starts you on learning simple pieces. Since I already play the guitar, for instance, I opened this book and almost ...

Excellent Case for Excellent Price
I bought this for my Kentucky f-style mandolin and it was perfect! The case does scratch (pick up white paint marks) easily, so beware of knocking it against the wall, but then again, this is a common problem with many cases. The inside is very soft and just what I would hope for in a case. The little pocket compartment which lies under the neck of the instrument is just big enough to fit my ...

Great book for beginners
I am new to the mandolin so I was looking for something to start me off on the right foot. I have several years of guitar behind me (as well as some violin) so I was not sure whether to start on a beginner book. The book starts you off with the real basics (how to hold a pick, read music and tab etc). It starts you off with really slow and simple songs and introduces the bluegrass backbeat ...

Can't say enough good stuff
As a frustrated guitar player, I ended up with a mandolin. I bought this book because of the reviews here. It is clear. Concise and gives you a solid understanding of not only the instrument, but the way music works. Bravo Mr. Horne!

Learning me some chords
"Get you a chord book," said the crusty old guy who restrung my mandolin. As a beginner, this book is top-notch, presenting the chords in their keys.

Elixir Strings Mandolin Strings, 8 String, Medium, Acoustic NANOWEB Coating
Elixir Strings revolutionized guitar strings by finding a way to extend the life of wound strings without compromising the tone. Polyweb coated strings have a balanced tone and smooth response - they sound like strings that have been "played in". Nanoweb coated strings sound and feel like uncoated strings - they are bright and lively, and the coating is so micro thin that you can barely tell it's there.

For other instruments...
I notice that the guitar edition's reviews are placed under the mandolin and banjo tab editions as well, so I would just like to say that they are much like the guitar edition. All instrument formats feature exact transcriptions for the songs that feature that instrument (i.e. "man of constant sorrow" and "hard time killing floor blues" are transcribed note for note in the guitar version) often ...

An excellent book for mandolin beginners!! Three cheers to Hal Leonard and Rich Delgrosso
I've found this book excellent in both beginning to play mandolin & also for learning to read music notation. When I was learning to play guitar a few years ago I could never find a book that explained reading notation in a way that was simple enough for someone learning by themselves to use so I always just read tab but this book puts it all so simply and is paced so well that you don't get ...

A solid book
Overall, this book is solid. It gives a good overview of basic techniques and gives some good tunes to play along with. I've learned basic mandolin from other books, but this one gave me a better understanding of rhythm and bluegrass-related (hammer-on/off, slide, chops, etc.) techniques in a better presented manner. As a downside, I wish that it had more tunes to learn and listen to or that ...

Great instruction!
I bought both the beginning and intermediate mandolin instruction books by this author and found them both to be excellent! The book is well thought out, presents material very well and the CD is a perfect companion as it provides an interplay for the student between playing chords and melodies. The pieces selected are great (Bluegrass). Never having played the mandolin in my life, I ...

Get's the Job Done
I purchased this strap for a Tenor Ukulele and it fulfills the role quite nicely. The fact that you can unclip the strap while leaving the clips attached to the body of the instrument is great. Nice product.

Works great
The Kyser Capo was recommended to me by a friend who tried a few different brands for his guitar. I looked around and found that it was rated well so I decided to give it a shot. A lot of people will say you should just learn all the different keys but the capo comes in handy when you haven't been playing too long and especially when you play with other people who like to change keys on you. ...
