A mandolin and fiddle- violin is tuned the same, and the same chords, double stops. the songs are played the same on each other. Just on fiddle you use a bow. Mandolin you use a pick.
Lordy the memories! Sitting around the squadbay on weekends at Camp Lejeune USMC. Us fellas from Georgia, Arkansas, Texas etc. Be like a whole improptu orchestra some days.
I can play amazing grace on my mandolin... But never as good as Mr. Ricky Scaggs...so simple, yet so amazing.. The Lord has truly gifted this man...

maybe you could play it- but not with the delicacy and nuance that ricky skaggs has.

Who couldn't play this, but watch him play "pig in a pen" and then tell me if you could play that on a "violin with a guitar pick"

There's nothing like a "pick up" band sometimes!! And Im sure it's helps pass the time when you're away from home. Semper Fi!!
