Hope posting this here is ok .. new to the mandolin. Starting with a Loar and learning slowly. I'm 71 so this is a new adventure. Hope to learn from all of you. Thanks and Happy New Year.
Welcome to the Mandohangout!
It's not real busy, but we do have a few on here who are knowledgeable and can help with questions you need answered.
Welcome Dolph! We have learning slowly in common! If I start now on the excellent Jingle Bells lesson that was recently posted in the video library / Lessons, I might be able to stumble through the song by next year.

As mentioned above the site does not get much traffic. I think it is a friendly and approachable site.

As Sherry posted -- not a busy forum here. But it's a no-nonsense forum (unlike another well-known popular mandolin forum).
Ask away, and whatever might be helpful to you -- someone is likely to be of service.
Incidentally, I just posted a "wanted" plea in the Buy & Sell forum. In search of a Gibson F5 'Distressed' Master Model (DMM) so if you hear anything in the wind I'd appreciate any leads.
I'm 68, been playing since 1964. Always happy to pass along helpful hints... and lessons learned (good & bad)!
Good luck in your new hobby.
Don't forget it's mostly about having fun and enjoying yourself; not so much about pleasing others (that's just a bonus).
