Garcia Grisman Marshall they all have this certain California country blues grass style that is soo good I'd say it's the best which then in turn a crowd in unison shouts at me ELITIST!!!!
Such an incredible sound and such a unique instrument I just wish I could get one for around $1000 instead of $4500 which is about what I paid for my car
@UCHZpus2TTpSRoMLC-UCWJNw The Guitar shaped Mandolin has a Name already, & it's called Mandolinetto so this could be thought of as an Octave Mandolinetto.
It is very beautiful, thank you Mike :) :) Please help me ! Does anybody know the name of all songs which mike has played? Please if yes tell me , l will be very happy to learn them :):):)
I think eastman makes some. I've found with mandolins, it is worth it to avoid the budget models. For $500, you can get a decent instrument that you won't be fighting and you could sell if you waved and not lose much
I agree with Juney Shober, don't know him but agree with his thought/s. "If you buy a $2.00 hammer soon you will have to go buy a $20.00 hammer and you will have spent $22.00 plus your time for something you should have brought in the first place." Daddy always said, "only used good tools". If you can find a $20.00 hammer on sale some placer for cheap then YES jump on it but stay away from junk tools and my instruments are my tools. The sermons over, you can wake up and go home now!!!
I have an Amber maple body Northfield , 5,400 . It nice , and its opening up ,....but it's an OM and not a bouzouki , and not quite as easy on the fingers.

Mike's playing is impressive as usual/expected. The instrument is equally impressive sounding... ...but it doesn't look anything like a mandolin. I'll be selecting something a bit more traditional.
I don't think I'm the only one who has come back to listen to that first song
whats the name of it？
What a glorious sound, so live and punchy, warm, a little growly. So cool.
Beautiful, wonderful instrument! Just wish they weren't so dang expensive.
Here lemme buy one for ya
@@mattiafioravanti8475 Good idea. The Octave Mandolin actually sounds like a Guitar because of its size.
If you were one of those who build them you’d think different...
You should look into Hora Octave Mandolins. Not as beautiful of a sound surely but a good first step.
Heart of Kentucky
Real good playing Mike Marshall. You are one of the greats
I use to hear you out and about, mostly at festivals. Katie.

Could get an Eastman and revoice the top
Wow very sweet indeed ...takes me away on a soundtrack vision back in time yet still in the present.
Wow ... what a fun demo . Love the sound / timbre and the playing so sweet .
Beautiful Bach
I decided not to learn Traditional mandolin, but that Octave is beautiful, I might give it a shot
Hahahaha I decided not eat an apple but that pear it looks good hahahha YES
Beautiful! Beyond words.
Quite simple stunning sound and well played.. OK I guess Mike could make a lightpole sound good, but this is really something special. Thanks
Love the Bach Mike! When will you record that suite.
Beautiful sounding instrument, great volume and, as he said, sustained tone...well presented.
Not only the player, also the builders are magicians!
I miss my lessons with this great man!
So beautiful
I really love this Octave Mandolin because it's modeled after my Archtop Electric Guitar.
Beautiful ..
big rich sound. beautiful.
This is my favorite type of 8 string guitar.
This should be called 8 string Irish tenor guitar instead of octave mando.
Nice playing!
Smooth as butter...
Not too shabby!
very impressive.
does anyone know the first song he plays on this video. please post a comment if you know.

Gotta get me one, outstanding 👍
I need one!
Can someone tell me the beautiful tune he plays from 00:38 to 1:53? I've loved it since I first came across this video but never known the name
Sounds like a very beautiful version of the old home place
Oliver Campion ..someday soon?
I have no idea, but 1:16 sounds like the bridge from Steel Panther's "Girl From Oklahoma" lol
sounds like half way between old home place and amazing grace with some IV>iv thrown in
so it's probly something else...
Pretty sure he just made it up
so so so AMMMAZING!! thank u so much
Genius! A genius!!
It is very beautiful, thank you Mike :) :)
Please help me !
Does anybody know the name of all songs which mike has played?
Please if yes tell me , l will be very happy to learn them :):):)
2nd one was Bach, Cello suite. I think Prelude
I do need one. LOL!
Lovely
Epic!
Is Northfield considering a mandola model ?
Please let me afford that some day...
I wonder if he could play a tune on a old barbed-wire fence back home on the family farm?
Wow !!!
Having a tough time finding left handed mandolins. Any ideas where i might be able to get a decent entry level instrument in a left handed version?

Hello! What a beautiful sound! Which tuning you use the mandolins ?
Thank you for your attention and feedback!
GDAE is standard mandolin tuning, the same as a violin. An octave mandolin is one octave below.

@@philiprundall3432 The Octave Mandolin is often called Tenor Mandolin cause it has a Tenor voice.
Does it have the Virzi Sound producer??
Some Greek or Italian songs would be brilliant on this thing.

@@fernandohernandez550 wtf
@@nana-ld4cr , NO SE LO QUE SIGNIFICA ESO
Is it tuned to the violin and where would I get one
It's tuned the same way and you can find them in music stores.
I WANT ONE OF THESE. Great playing. GDAE?
Yes
Same turning, just an octave lower.
@@Rick_Cleland That puts it into a Tenor range.
@@Rick_Cleland They should have 10 String versions tuned CGDAE.
@@RockStarOscarStern634 that's a five-course mandocello then
Hello !
What is its scale and fret number ?
... are you ready to make one 10 strings ?
Regards
René Bleu moon guitars in Glasgow make a 5 course instrument
@@okiwatashi2349 A 10 String version can wait.
It's modeled after a Gibson 335 Archtop Guitar.
Is Mike playing the Maple or Mahogany version in this video? Thanks!
Mahogany version.
Вау
I call it a Tenor Mandolin because it has a Tenor voice.
What is the scale length? It seems long for an Octave Mando.
22"
@@lionelcuzenic7492 It's almost the same as a Guitar.
May 17
What is the song e plays at 2:10?? I hear it everywhere
Bach Cello Suite No. 1 :)
Thank you. May Harambe bless u
Bach's Cello Suite no. 1 Prelude. I just found out too after hearing it everywhere and trying to figure it out.
What song is Mike playing at 00:38s ?
The Tennessee Waltz
sorry wrong answer
Is it tuned like a viola
Octave mandolins like this are tuned GDAE usually, like a regular mandolin, but an octave lower. The mandola however is tuned like a viola, CGDA.
very good !!!!!!!so take a look at Sarah Jarosz!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mike's playing is impressive as usual/expected.
The instrument is equally impressive sounding...
...but it doesn't look anything like a mandolin.
I'll be selecting something a bit more traditional.
Steven Burton those guitar bodies are annoying. Every one is gonna call it a guitar and I don wanna have to explain myself
@@ShayanGivehchian You can tell it's a Tenor Mandolin from looking at the headstock with the 8 machine heads.
What I’d give to have one of these!
A kidney?
A couple hundred quid?

eric weinstein brought me here
I don't think I'm the only one who has come back to listen to that first song

john Michalala I was thinking the same. For a little more, you can get a top of line Taylor guitar.
