  • just wondering, what thickness pick do you prefer?

  • i am using a 1.5 mm proplec

  • This is the same BPM as Grisman plays it, at least for Fisher's. Nice old Gibson A!

  • wow, i have actually never heard him do it. what album is it on?

    and surprisingly, its a 2003. haha. i suppose i play it hard.

  • great work mate, you ever heard of luke plumb? plays with a band called shooglenifty, great player

  • shooglenifty is my hero. great stuff.

  • I'd have to issue you with a speeding ticket here.. You're a great musician so play the tunes with more conviction and meaning than speed!

  • first I would like to congratulate you on being one of the few people on youtube capable of tuning their mandos properly. lol. and second, great playing.

  • Excellent! Need to slow down tho. Hornpipes are slower than reels and you need to slow down to get the lilting feel of a hp. Mad skills tho. Great.

  • Very nice playing.

  • Mandobaran, I enjoyed your video. I'm a beginner, so would you mind going a little slower and tell what strings you are hitting?  Thanks your mandolin friend Linda

  • awsome!! =D

    can you send me the tabs plz

  • Great job man! If i could reccomend one thing at all, would be slow it down, but that was really good man! Keep it up!

  • Great job there! Consider slowing it down to a more comfortable speed until you fully master it!

  • great - stamp your foot to the beat to give it some swing and carry it along. The speed is not a prob just give your self a drum - see i love you honey - im not great but the foot stamping thing give it something try it!

  • I have to agree with the speed criticisms. It's just to fast and choppy and not very pleasant to listen to.

  • It's much older than Pirates of the Carribean is, though.
