rcc56 and Allen made some great comments above! I will add that I too chased around for an F-5 in the 70's, only to find woefully substandard Gibsons from the 50's and 60's and no affordable newer...
It's only a Gibson and I've had enough.
Very nice playing!
Please note that while "Take Five" is probably the most popular piece of music associated with Dave Brubeck's ensembles through the years, it is a Paul Desmond composition.
Here is my pair, both built by Hans Brentrup: a 2003 M21V and a 2007 23V (natural top w/blackburst back & sides).

Congrats and enjoy! Craig builds 'em right!
For our OP:
How about a Hiscox case? May take a while to obtain, however it is oblong, very protective, and not a great deal of money.

Both Carter's and Gruhn Guitars are a safe distance away from the affected area.
What a horrible incident and I hope those injured make full, rapid recoveries.
Ah yes....Gibson/Opry Mills. I recall visiting with Charlie Derrington there around 2004. He had Billy perform a set-up (no charge!) on my Flatiron Artist "F" while I watched him and his group...
Great playing, Jozef and the sustain on that Coall is amazing!
So sad to learn of his passing.

In that price range I'd be contacting Craig Wilson. Disclaimer: he's a good friend (about 50 years) however I have no financial interest......he simply builds great mandolins....
That's a fine sounding mandolin, Greg.....very nice job on Northern White Clouds BTW!
Nice video old buddy, and your Wilson D is sounding mighty good!
Butch always pulls great TONE and he's certainly channeling Mr. Bill!
One of my original reasons (many years ago) for subscribing to Sirius XM was for the Bluegrass station. Over the past couple of years however I find myself listening more to "Real Jazz" and "50's on...
Troy--thank you for posting the Vana H-5 photos.....elegant and Loar-like, to be sure!
My "go-to" case for air travel is from Gator.....polyfoam with a black nylon exterior. It's compact, not quite as thick as a Travelite but similar in construction. The Gator's big advantage is...
While in Louisville in 2001, I visited with Bill, Jeff, and Eric Sullivan at their shop. Eiichi Sumi happened to be there on that day (very nice gentleman) and they told me of their plans to market...
Congrats....beautiful backside, too!
That is a stunner, Mr. Kelley...and that incredible neck! 3-D glasses not necessary!
Agreed Dave....fine musicians, however way too fast for soul...and discernible tone.
That's a powerfully-good sounding mandolin, Mr. Kelley!
Durang's Hornpipe or Soppin' the Gravy?
Back in the days when Byron was one of the busiest studio musicians in the country!
