I don’t think so
A mandolin playing Scoutmaster....... doesn’t get much better than that
Last Friday, I attended a performance by one of the East Tennessee State blue grass groups. ETSU offers a degree in Blue grass and have 60 students declaring that major. They are simply great.
I don't play much mandolin. As a collector, the chance to acquire one of a special series of the first 2011 mandolins to come out of the Gibson Custom Shop after the May 2010 floods was just too much to pass up. Although I will be playing mandolin in church tomorrow as part of a bluegrass Gospel group put together for a 'camp meeting' service that's nothing but old-time bluegrass Gospel songs.
The guitar player in our group plays a 1952 Gibson J-45 which he bought in . . . 1952.
I play guitar, banjo and ukulele. I just mess around with mandolin and dobro.
