I bought a Jackie about a year ago and love the instrument. I have played guitars, mandolas, mandolins for years, by ear. I would love to meet other players for tea , beer, wine or scotch for advise and ideas. If there is a group in my area please let me know. If enough of you get in touch then we may be able to start one. Being new to the forum are we OK to pass on personal details or arrange meting points?
