Up for sale is an authentic Gibson A2 mandolin from approximately 1916, featuring serial number 29204. This beautiful vintage mandolin comes from Gibson’s legendary Kalamazoo, Michigan factory and is over 100 years old.
The Gibson A2 is a classic A-style mandolin with an oval sound hole, traditional spruce top, and maple back and sides. It’s known for its warm, balanced tone and excellent playability. Collectors often say A2 Gibsons from this early 1910s period are among the best-sounding A-model mandolins ever made.
This is a rare opportunity to own a genuine vintage Gibson mandolin from the pre-war era (1900s-1920s), which represents the golden age of American mandolin manufacturing. Serial numbers in the 29,000 range are documented as 1916 production, making this a verified historical piece perfect for vintage instrument collectors or musicians who play bluegrass, folk, and country.
