I just tried out a couple of recently built Army-Navy style flattops. I am considering buying the one that is 1 year old, sounds and plays good. The workmanship is not exceptional but he used high quality materials and tuners. The builder makes his own doublefoot bridges. There is slight top sinkage in the bridge area, not alarming but is that to be expected in a near-new instrument of this style? Any precautions to take, if I were to end up owning it? Price is _very_ reasonable considering the materials, Grover tuners, etc.
