Amanda Anderson
Amanda Anderson started singing before she was two years old, and now her crystalline voice is often compared to that of Alison Krauss. She made her recorded debut singing and playing fiddle on her critically-acclaimed debut project with her dad Scott, “Another Day”, in 2009. Her vocals were also featured very prominently on Scott’s “Tales from the Swamp,” where she shined in the studio among bluegrass legends such as Sam Bush, Jim Hurst, Stuart Duncan, and Barry Bales. She has performed with The Amanda and Scott Anderson band and duo as well as with The Bluegrass Parlor Band since 2008. She did all of this before graduating high school, where she also excelled as a National Merit Scholar. She is currently a pre-dental student at the Univeristy of Florida.

What others are saying about Jim Hurst:
"Jim is one of the most under-rated musicians on today's acoustic scene. He always mines a deep grove and heats things up to a rolling boil. Combining strong country and bluegrass roots, subtle invention, and a big beautiful sound. Jim's music is consistently fresh and friendly."
- Tim O'Brien
"Jim uses his family background, along with his exceptional talent, to build upon a foundation of his own memories and inspiration to create a contemporary sound that is still able to reflect strong traditional values... Jim Hurst is a very hard-working musician with clear goals for himself."
- Country Review
"There's not a more inventive, talented guitar player in the bluegrass business than Jim Hurst. He brings a world of experience in so many different kinds of music and formats to everything he does."
- Tim Stafford
"In a field known for great instrumental work, Hurst is as good as they come...His guitar playing is marked by pure abandon."
- Country Standard Time
"Jim Hurst is one of the most versatile and tasteful guitar players I know. Whether he's flailing the rhythm for an old time fiddle tune, laying down a funky groove, or finger picking a beautiful ballad, his playing is both impeccable and creative. Accompanying this instrumental virtuosity is a rich and expressive voice with a surprising range."
- Mark Schatz
"Jim Hurst has an attractive vocal delivery with his songs...but it has to take a back seat to his incredible flat-picking guitar work."

Clay Hess is a Grammy award winner who first burst upon the national bluegrass music scene as the red-hot flat-picking guitarist with Ricky Skaggs & Kentucky Thunder, with whom he toured for three years. With his awesome speed and tasty sense of syncopation, Hess has established himself as one of the top flat-pickers in the business.
Clay began playing guitar at age nine after hearing Tony Rice's landmark recording, "Manzanita." From there, Clay's life was changed because all he did was play his "old cheap guitar." Before too long, Clay got his first "real" guitar when his dad bought him a new Martin D18 for his birthday. Clay continued to hone his skills and develop his own style, winning guitar contests along the way, including the Ohio State Guitar Championship in 1995. When he was 19, a friend told him about an open audition at Dollywood. Clay landed the gig, playing guitar with the band, True Blue. Fellow musicians were noticing Clay's talents. One of them was multi-Grammy Award winning country and bluegrass artist Ricky Skaggs.
Eventually Clay left Dollywood to return home to Ohio. He was working in construction and had nearly quit playing altogether when Ricky Skaggs called in 1999 and asked him to fill the guitar slot for Kentucky Thunder. Clay thought the call was a joke and hung up the phone. Ricky called a second time and convinced Clay that the offer was real. Clay then spent the next three years performing with Kentucky Thunder. While Clay was a part of the band, the International Bluegrass Music Association awarded Kentucky Thunder their Instrumental Band of the Year Award for both 1999 and 2000. Clay recorded on three projects with Skaggs, and was awarded a Grammy for his participation on the project "Soldier of the Cross."
After leaving Skaggs' band, Clay toured with The Mark Newton Band playing mandolin and then guitar before joining Mountain Heart. Eventually, he left to join another one of the hottest young bands around, Sierra Hull and Highway 111, with whom he still tours today.
Though Clay largely considers himself a bluegrass player, his influences range outside of bluegrass and include players such as Stevie Ray Vaughan, Charlie Parker and Leon Rhodes. The CF Martin guitar company has also recently began production of the Clay Hess D-18 signature model guitar in recognition of Clay's talent and influence.

The lens + polarizer and UV filter for $60.
Hutto mandolin #137 - a great instrument. Original varnish finish by Scott Jackson, slightly widened fingerboard and slightly deepened body (similar to Gilchrist.)
Dempsey Young (of Lost and Found) played it in 2004 and told me it sounds much better than his own Hutto. When I said I'd like to try his Hutto, he told me something like "Well since you're used to this one, you're gonna think mine is a dog." Adam Steffey played it and called it "a great axe" and "a monster."
This one is definitely a unique and fine instrument.
$18,500 firm. Will consider trades involving your old Martin guitar.
There's Dempsey saying this is a good one!

1992 Gibson Granada - from Greg Rich's custom shop (excellent curly maple), gold plated, in very good condition, lightly used. Has "Scott Anderson" engraved at 12th fret block inlay. Used for recording Endless Highway CD. This is a great banjo. w/ HSC
$3500 + shipping and insurance.
Standard 5/8" Grover type 5 string banjo bridge $5 (unused)
Stockwell moon bridge for 5 string banjo $15 (briefly used)
Why compensated bridges? According to common sense, if a string is a set length and the string is fretted in the middle, it should be exactly half the number of vibrations. If all strings are the same length, then the middle should be half for all. Well, the math just doesn't add up here. The shorter the strings become, the worse the problem is. To help correct this problem, we offset the problem string, therefore making them longer.
Backwater - Sun
Fifth string sliding banjo capo - used - attaches to neck via 2 very small screws. $10 + shipping (briefly used)
