I went and picked up my birthday present today. Shelley give me “the right to buy” a mandolin. It was my idea. I just want to pick out my own musical instruments since it a personal kind of thing and takes a little bit of expertise…Anyway, I got a Fender FM-53S Sunburst Mandolin. I would have got an “F-Style” one, but they are really expensive. So I decided to get a good lower end, “solid top”, A-Style job.
I plays really nicely. Now I just have to convince the band to do “Copperhead Road”…
