    Re: Gibson's 1923 F-5 Master Model Reissue

    Scott, I was curious about this since it wasn't openly discussed in the advertising and I contacted David Harvey and he told me absolutely they were constructed using hide-glue only. That is the 1923...

    2020 Duff A5

    I received my Duff A5 yesterday and after 16 hours of acclimation, I was able to open it this morning. Thought I would share some pictures of Duff A5 25520. Purchased from Carter Vintage Guitars.
  13. Re: Duff A style mandolins, like to hear owner thoughts, some ?

    Wow, that didn't take long. I called about the 2021 with Waverly's and it's already sold.

  16. Re: Video demo of my new Craig Wilson "Griffith Loar"Tribute mand

    Very nice. Impressive mandolin and also impressive picking. Really enjoyed that great demonstration and Monroe style playing.
