Is the mandolin your primary instrument or a sideline? It's the primary instrument with Brother Crow...officially I'm a piano/synth player. I also play guitar (both electric and acoustic) Do you perform regularly with others/are you part of an organized group? Yup, I play mandolin with Brother Crow (see www.myspace.com/brothercrowfolk ). What type of music do you play? Original songs, English folk in style...there is quite a lot of "classic rock" riffs in my playing, a la Dave Gilmour, Tony Iommi, Ritchie Blackmore etc. etc. What style would you LIKE to be playing? I'm happy with what i do, I'd just like to be able to do it better... Are you happy with your mandolin? Yes, very much so... What type/style/brand of mandolin do you own. A Capek A4 Exclusive (piccies on our website at http://www.brothercrow.co.uk/instruments/index.htm) fitted with a Mcintyre MF-200 Acoustic Feather pickup. Baggs para-acoustic DI/preamp and zoom A1 Effects. Cheers folks, this is an interesting thread, Graeme, Brother Crow.
