    Hey Mike I’m wondering if you have/had a dream mandolin? Or any brand that you just love?

      @RockPopMandolin  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      I’m happy with my little Loar right now. But someday, perhaps I’ll be able to afford a more expensive mando.

    • @RockPopMandolin
      @RockPopMandolin  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Mike Ellis Don’t know without trying one in person. But perhaps I’d go for a Weber or Collings. They look like lovely instruments.

      Rock & Pop Mandolin awesome! Thanks for the reply. I also like Weber and Collings. I recently started looking at Stiver Mandolins and wow very nice mandolins.

    I’ve been playing for a while Mike and it’s funny how I play so many of the songs you have tutorials for. Looking forward to learning lots more from you! Found out about you from Neal Doss over on Comandolin. You guys are going to keep me busy. I feel in love with the mandolin decades ago when I first listened to Seals and Crofts. Any plan to cover any of their stuff? Regardless, I am SO excited to have found you!!!

    • @RockPopMandolin
      @RockPopMandolin  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Rick! Awesome to have you on board, here. Yes, Neal is a great guy and an excellent mandolin player and teacher. We did a Zoom interview this week that I hope to run here on my channel in the coming weeks. As for Seals and Crofts, I'm not familiar with them. What song would you like me to look at?

  • @wlosinger
    @wlosinger 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Maybe some Simon and Garfunkel?

    • @RockPopMandolin
      @RockPopMandolin  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes, I love them. Hope to do a song or two from them on my channel in the future.

    Those are all good songs. I just learned "Pictures of Matchstick Men" by the Status Quo and found it to be very easy. The mandolin sounds good on that song. It has a single notes lead in, don't know if you would call it a lick though but it is incredibly easy. The rest is mostly chords. But they are pretty easy chords. A lot of two finger chords can be used.
