My ’90 Tony Rice is EIR with Sitka top. Getting better all the time! Signed by Otis B and Jeff Traugott.
I had a 1983 HD-28 150th anniversary model given to me by my wife for our 10th anniversary. Unfortunately, it was taken in a burglary at our house. Received undervalued insurance settlement, and ventured with a friend on a road trip to Mandolin Bros. on Staten Island. I closed my eyes while he played the two TR models in stock and I chose the one that sounded better to me. Happily ever after, me and my guitar!
Very informative podcast, looking forward to pt 2.
Thanks for this treasure.

Call them and ask about the TR capo. They are a delight to chat with. The TR was offered as a limited edition of 1951 (Tony’s birth year, mine as well) a few years ago. Each was serially numbered. At the time, you could request a specific number (if available). Mine has the same serial number as my ’90 TR. Each capo has his well recognized signature engraved on it as well as the #. The TR capo is beautifully crafted and is a pleasure to use. I treasure mine and it will stay with my TR ‘Cruz. It was good to know that some of the payment would go to Tony as well.

Howdy,
Bought my TR in ’90 at Mandolin Bros. Been a great ride, looking forward to another 28 years!
