What year would you determine an A2 with stamp number 11596 to be? Thanks

Do any of you use this case for your old Gibson A? Like it is or with modifications? Thanks

Thank you very much!

How do I move a thread from, vintage to general mandolin?

I am just curious how you would rate or compare these flat top mandolins, assuming all are in good repair and excellent playing condition. Thanks

I appreciate all the thoughts and discussion. I don't know too much about Justin Guitar but will check it out. I have a very high regard for Baron's Mando Lessons site! I would like to find a site...

Do you know of a site that is for guitar but much like Baron's Mando lessons?

I know Joe and even had one of his octaves, some time ago. IMHO, anything Joe does is great and well done!

That is the one!

I was surfing Reverb today and found a pretty clean old 1918 A4. It said it had laminated maple back and sides. Can that be? When did Gibson start laminating B&S on mandolins. I'm curious. Thanks

Thanks, Explorer. got it!

Thanks y' al! Mike the one you are talking about is another one. I regretfully sold that one but have just bought another one which will arrive Tuesday. It is a 2007 model and I look so forward to...

All are great! Thanks!

Thank you Richard! For the music and the beautiful flowers!

Steve 2E, it was 14" scale.

pheffernan , Yes Indeed, you pointed me to it and I hope it is as good as I anticipate. I just wish I could play worthy of the instruments I own. Oh well, It is fun and I enjoy it. thanks, JC

thanks pheffernan, I looked, I liked, I am awaiting its journey to me. Thanks

I had one of these a few years ago (1220) and sold it, regrettably. I sold it to a person up in Seattle, I think. I would be interested in getting it back if possible. thanks.

Roland was a great mandolin player and a good and humble man!

Thank you Patrick. My oh my what a beautiful mandolin and the video! I love it but it is beyond the MAS $'s I am currently infested with, but who knows, if the condition worsens, it would be a...

Who makes an A style mandolin like this? Of all of them that I have played, this is my favorite fit. even with a deeper and wider body. just looking and nurturing the MAS!
