We used to call those "tater bug" mandolins. I've only seen a handful of them. On the banjo style is that a wood inlay or carving on the back? I would definitely hang on to those.

I dropped the tuning down a tone for my partner so it the same as a ukulele just a octave down, she started playing late in life,the narrow neck and only having to learn one instrument is great... Basically she used her skills on the UKE to sound like a guitar...

Doesn't get more sparse than this. https://youtu.be/owQswtRcQ6k I am using the new 1040XTRAEZ form this year. It has just 2 lines. 1. How much did you make in 2023? 2. Send it to us.

And Eddie - thanks for sharing, I enjoyed that a lot. Talking sparsity in music I can't help but immediately think of Brian Eno's ambient material - in particular, Music For Airports. Again, while personally not my taste, its insane the amount of praise this album gets. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vNwYtllyt3Q Cheers, Deryk
