The Acoustic Shoppe Great comparison! I'm not sure how long ago that this was posted, but I just went onto your store website (Monday, 925,2023) after just watching this video, and there are No Kentucky mandolins showing up, at all they're not even listed under the Brand names that you carry what's up with that? brbrMostly Eastman, with a couple of Ortega's, Loar's, Bourgois & Gold Tone The Eastman's are a little out of my price range at this moment what is your "opinion" of the Loar LM-110-BRB that you have, in terms of build quality, etc, etc for the price point of $29999 ?? brbrI play electric & Ukelele Bass guitars, Lap & Console Steel guitars and looking to learn the mandolin, so this would have to be an "entry level" mandolin to see if I even like it, therefore I cannot justify the cost of even the Eastman 305, as an "entry level" at this point in time Thank you in advance for your response and any insight to my question(s), as well as any suggestions you may have brbrPS: I live about 15 hour drive from your store in Springfield

I like the sound of the kentucky more, however i can see a lot of the tone being lost when playing with a guitar

At 19:35 the video on screen has the mandolin labeled as an Eastman MD 315, however it's actually a MD 305 Yes?

The main difference between an Eastman and a Kentucky is Kentuckys don't believe left handed people exist or want to play mandolins

I want east man md505
Comment from : CampbellRocksAgain

Watching the video yet again - would also love to see a video about "pro setup" and compare pre and post set up mandos Lots of comments about the benefit of pro setup on mandolincafe, but hard to get my head around how much of an improvement to expect and where to expect it, especially for something like an Eastman

Every place I look has the Eastman $80-$100 more than the Kentucky That’s significant on a +/- $600 instrument
Comment from : Judson Hair

The flat finish on that 305 will wear to shiny after a period if time

i like the deeper tones of a mando, but i think the eastman's a better mandolin how 'bout comparin' plywood basses i payed a grand for my tacoma maple flattop mandolin, & the same for a cremona sb-3 bass i just mess around w/bluegrass, but these instruments are pretty good i've heard this bass on stage & it sounds good
Comment from : Rodney Harouff

as a video editor, im quite impressed by how you do the blind tests
Comment from : fxlse

B - sounds over eq'd muffled A has more clarity volume and sparkle I spent a fortune in plug ins to get that clarity and balance with acoustic instruments Ps I like the pickguard - for anchoring, tapping and protection - If I did this blind id gravitate to the Kentucky - if i did it visually Id feel peer pressured into the organic looking Eastman Folkies can be so cruel My ears with eyes shut are the way to go Really helpful, and enjoyable video guys - ps play the king of the fairies or george brabazon (o carolan)
