Collings Model MF Satin F-style Mandolin with K & K pickup & OHS Case
We got this wonderful mandolin from the original owner and it is in very nice condition with only a small nick on the top near the edge of the bridge that looks like it might have been done while adjusting the bridge. There is also a small rub spot on the top of the headstock where it looks like a clip on tuner was claipped. This beautiful mandolin has recently been upgraded with the addition of a K & K pickup installed . The owner paid $6750.00 for the mandolin and $290.00 for the pickup and professional installation and we are selling it for way under that price. The mandolin comes with the Collings case which is also in superb condition. It carries the serial number 1960 if that helps you to date it. This is a wonderful mandolin outfit, ready to play at your next show.
Here is the factory description and pecs on this model:

With a fully carved Adirondack Spruce top and Maple back and sides , the MF is built with the same quality construction as our fully appointed models . These instruments produce the rich, woody tone that one would expect from a professional quality mandolin at an affordable price.
