1914 Gibson A-1 Mandonlin Natural
Here's a 1914 Gibson A-1 Mandolin in Natural finish. 100% original example. Serial number 16448. The mandolin comes to us from an incredible private collection! No breaks, cracks, repairs (on the body). A small piece on the lower left hand side of the pickguard chipped off somewhere along the way, and as you can see it hsome corrosion in that area, but it's all still in tact. Beyond that the mandolin is in great shape! Playability is exceptional, with easy playing low action. Neck is straight. Frets are in good condition as well. No sinking on the top. The mandolin has incredible tone and bass! OHSC!
