This one just ended nicely priced. And I really don't...

Thank you. I like this too. I like both four strings and eight strings!

I love this! Thank you.

Thanks again Mike. We’re keeping it for a while! :-)

I have it! Thanks so much for helping out a mando mom! It is really cool. The seller said it belonged to her grandfather who bought it at a rummage sale in the 40s.

Yikes! I don’t want to get something that sounds awful!

Update: Multiple Offers! I'm scheduled to see it/buy it tomorrow. We will see if it's available by the time I get there?! You never know. Thanks again for the feedback. I'll update tomorrow.

Thank you Mike! I see that the seller has read my FB post about having cash and wanting to see it. No reply yet. Someone may have beaten me to it. Suspense...

Yes it is marked Wurlitzer on the back of the head on a stick.

Thanks F-2 Dave. I've sent in an inquiry, so who knows. It was recently posted, but it could be snatched. I'm wondering if it is supposed to sound like a banjo? But played like a mandolin. Anyway...

This is on a local yard sale site to me for $50. Is it worth something? My son plays, so I'd be happy to get for him if it's something cool.

Thanks everyone. We've ordered the Gator GL-MANDOLIN Lightweight Polyfoam Mandolin Case. :-)

Sounds like Gator is a good bet! I appreciate the feedback. This one looks good too...and my son really liked the look of it.

Mandolin: Eastman LA315 F-Style

Hi! My son is going off to college in two weeks. In May I ordered the Travelite Lightweight Mandolin Case for him, but it has been perpetually on backorder and out...

Now it's down to $250.

The seller has marked this down by $50 twice this week. Now $300. In Northern Virginia.

Definitely think the cat is off-topic! ;-) But thanks for the varnish chat--it was a bonus for us and we love it. My son is loyal to the mando, and this will be his "forever" so we'll be able to...

Update: We had a pickguard custom-made from a local luthier by the name of Vern Bryant in Springfield, VA. He required full payment up front and had no insurance. I was a bit nervous, but took a...

I phoned Eastman --they do not make or sell them. They referred me to one of their dealers, the mandolinstore.com. :-)

I also emailed the mandolinstore.com to confirm the Cumberland A-9 was the...

When/If I hear back from Darryl and Eastman, I will post the info for the files!

(We understand the pros and cons of having a pickguard. We are proceeding with a pickguard at this time for several...

Thanks so far. I sent a message to both Eastman and Darryl Wolfe.

The Cumberland pickguard seems one way to go...it seems to have only two pins -- no clamp. Is it "free-floating" and sturdy...

We recently acquired an Eastman 604 (varnish) A-style roundhole mandolin for our 11yo son. We need to find the right pickguard. We are hoping to find something similar to the pickguard used on the...
