to all you mandolin addicts out there....

damn you

things were goin ok here, gettin settled still (just moved our bedroom to the first floor) but started lessons.. it's slow goin, because i ordered a bridge, TI strings, got everything back after a few days, played a couple chords then played about 3 notes of scales and the damn nut broke, right at the topmost g string slot,  i was really liking the "new" sound and feel of the strings, but i get pissed off every time i go to pick it up... the store where i've been goin had one precut/slotted nut for a mando, but it wouldn't fit my epi (mine is 1.125 long, is that an odd size?)
anyways, i was readin all the hype about them there fullerton gloucester f styles.. they look nice, and had lots of good reviews, my b-day is coming up, so the wife ordered it last night.. she ended up getting it for $165 through an online rebate program she's in
i smirked at all the posters at the cafe, and i had  a couple folks let me know that what i had wasn't a very good mando (i was and am happy with it!  it's just an unfortunate series of events!)
i digress.. i guess that's because i'm still a little bit out of sorts over purchasing another mando...
or because i ,,, ummmm,, used to be a stoner.. lol

anyways, i'm pickin more, but havin trouble strummin, so thats what i'm tellin the instructor i want to work on tonight

Well, good luck.  Keep your wrist loose.  I find I much prefer using the upper corner of a plain ol' Fender medium or heavy instead of the point.
