Vintage 1918 The Gibson A Style Mandolin
Natural top
Dark mahogany or possibly birch back and sides
There was a crack on the side that was repaired by Brothers Music in Wind Gap PA
The laquer has shrunk in and there is a crack repair line which is now visible after a few years
The back was off to properly repair the crack and structure of the mandolin
The repair area was oversprayed
$900 repair 6 years ago
Very nice sounding and playing mandolin
Needs no work unless you wanted the repair line to get worked on for cosmetic reasons only
All set up properly and ready to play
