(upbeat music) That mandolin’s very special to me. It was the first instrument I ever got. I became interested in playing mandolin when I was 5 years old and
asked for one for Christmas, and my parents, grandparents,
and my great grandma went in together and bought that mandolin and gave it to me on Christmas Eve. I just turned 6 years old, and so, that’s the mandolin I learned
my first chords on, ever. And so, yeah, it has a
special place in my heart.
