Guitar Player Learning Mandolin - 10 Thoughts & Experiences (2018)

**This video does not include any guitar playing or lessons** My thoughts and experiences as a long time guitar player trying to learn Mandolin for the first time. After many years of considering it, I purchased a Mandolin about 6 months ago and am slowly but surely learning the instrument. Thought I'd share my thoughts and experiences on this new journey with fellow guitar players who may be considering the Mandolin as well. Feel free to post questions in the comments section or add your experiences as a guitar player trying to add a Mandolin into the musical mix.
