howdy reverb heads,
my new Epiphone Mandobird VIII just arrived: its a
cool/cheesy single-coil solid-body 8-string electric
mandolin (made in Indonesia). sounds swell through the old
Fender Amp and Reverb!
i didn't consider new strings,though ...anyone out there
know where I can find nickel or stainless steel BALL-END
8-string mandolin strings? i checked www.juststrings.com
but their mandolin pages are a little vague. seems like
d'addario might make the ball-end electric set i'm looking
for, but i'm not sure.
most manufacturers seem to make bronze LOOP-END strings for
country/bluegrass accoustic mando players.
thanks for any help you can provide,
-dp
ps: i think I'll try an ultra high version of "pipeline"
today, "Miserlou" sounds cool...maybe "Penetration" will
sound good...
