    Re: Question about mandolin necks

    These move pretty fast, but look for a circa 2002-2004 Gibson F9 or A9….these are fantastic instruments and have just the neck profile that you are looking for.

    Re: Question about mandolin necks

    I always rather liked the 88 to 93 Flatiron and Gibson mandolins. The 1 1/16' at the nut may have you having one built to your spec. Good luck in your search. R/

    Gibson re-used serial numbers, so two different years correspond with 58214: 1920 and 1962.
    If the number was impressed on the back of the peghead, that would point to 1962.
    And if the mandolin...
