We invited a neighborhood family for Xmas dinner to pay them back for Thanks giving dinner and their daughter who just got a mandolin and her daughter who is 18. The youngest who plays violin and piano had just been given a few years old Washburn 12 string by her dad, the strings looked rusted and old. I asked her if I could try it out and I played on it a little bit and WOW! I kept looking over my shoulder for the other guys with guitars. I can imagine how good it would sound with new strings and a setup.
There we sat two guitar newbie's, a mandolin newbie, talk about a roomfull wannabe's. Question, I know the chording is different on a mandolin but a C or G sounds just like my guitar C or G as best as I can make out Sooo will a song with chords be the same for a mandolin as a guitar as we wanted to practice a few songs together so we would have something to play at the next dinner we have, thanks.
