Jack Ellenburg

"Nestled at the bottom of the Blue Ridge Mountains in the county of Anderson, S.C. is Jack Ellenburg and his Bitterroot Mandolin.  Jack owns the Picking Parlor, where hundreds of musicians gather to jam and put on stage shows.  He also has a bluegrass band named Grass Roots Exchange.  When purchasing his Weber Bitterroot mandolin, Jack checked out other models, but found the right sound in the Bitterroot model.....bright and brilliant with the tone bar on the bass side delivering the right ""chunk"" and the treble, marrying with the bass to make up the total harmony of his Bitterroot mandolin.  All that have held and heard the Bitterroot mandolin that Jack owns, describe it as a mandolin the has awesome sound.
     Jack has been a member and co-sponsor of Grass Roots Exchange for about 5 years.  He makes many appearances with the group, all the way from Atlanta to Spartanburg SC.  Jack has been playing rhythm guitar for many years and about 4 years ago fell in love with the sound of the mandolin in a group setting.  Jack's blood runs bluegrass.  He loves the upbeat and high frequency sounds that are associated with bluegrass music.  Jack is also a promoter of bluegrass in the upstate of South Carolina.  He has put on a lot of events that involve the surrounding communities where he lives and plays bluegrass.
     To compliment Jack and his music - his Weber Bitterroot mandolin is always within reach to be heard and played.  Jack is the proud owner of one of the most beautiful, well-built mandolins in the marketplace today.
He says ""If I'm a-breathing, I'm making bluegrass music on my WEBER.  Try it because it's a New Tradition For The New Millennium."
