Thread Name: Mandola vs octave mandolin vs mandolin
Subject: Mandola vs octave mandolin vs mandolin
Sigh....save me from myself please. I seem to be infatuated with a Mandola. Already have and octave mandolin, and we won't go into the school of mandolins that inhabit the house. To top this, i am really a hammered dulcimer player. Ugh. Anyway, with the different tuning on a Mandola, are the chord patterns going to be different? Or will it be the same, just one string down. I really have no business even considering but.....you know how it goes. Any thoughts?
