I've worked through the Murphy Method videos and found them great to get a foothold on the mandolin. They aren't for high falootin' music learning but focus on simple tunes and playing by ear only, no sheet or tab. It's helped me a lot to be ready to jam with others.

Does anyone reading this have an electric mandolin / mandolin with pickups and care to share a review? I'm thinking about taking the plunge although I love my Epiphone starter mando.

I play an Eastwood, if you'd like an example... I'm on the new Toxik Ephex album, "Immune To The Media", available on Spotify and Bandcamp!

I'm gonna check it out!

Also, my strap slipped off the peg tonight at a jam and welp


It's split almost in two. RIP my first mando

This is the fretting I use, I find it much easier than the one you're doing.
