Subject: technique builders and O Quartz case

From your website:

I'm currently putting together a book, and video, on mando that covers nothing but technique builders...

Mickey

Is this ready? Name? Is there a DVD version?

It's been in the works...and, upon its release, we should have a DVD version ready:
Mandolin Technique Builders Coming Soon! by Mickey Cochran Video: 2 Hours in Length This video will attempt to illustrate and demonstrate the importance of exercises and studies and how they contribute to playing facility. This will not be a video on scales...this will be a video on how to develop your playing technique through many studies and exercises so that you, as a complete mandolinist, will be better able to play within most any setting. Increase your speed, your accuracy, your timing, and your overall mandolin technique with this video!

ALSO, looking for a ROBUST but light weight case for an O body Breedlove Quartz. Would the Featherlite you offer be a good fit? If so, overall dimensions, please. How weatherproof is it? Adequate to use for airline luggage in a pinch?

I'm not too sure...my suggestion would be to contact Breedlove on this one. We would hate to guesstimate something as important as a mandolin case you'll be using for Air Travel:

Thanks,
