Hello I’m new here and looking for a mandolin. Thought this thread might help answer question about this used one I found locally. Selling for $480. Is it worth it and also is it real. The serial number sticker I’ve never seen.
Thank you

All the used ones that I'm seeing on Reverb are priced considerably higher, so if there's nothing wrong with it, I'd say it's a pretty good deal. Make sure that there aren't any cracks or seam separations, and that the neck is straight, and the action is comfortable.
Here's a picture of Jethro with his Washburn circa 1983:
