Earlier, there was a discussion of this emerald green F5 built by Rolf Gerhardt and Jeff Harrison.
Thought it would be nice to have the pictures of this unique early F-style build by one of the great instigators of the 1970s mandolin building Renaissance "on the record" here --
Amazing to think Rolf built this in 1976 . . . back when the earliest Gibson copyists were just getting started. What a welcome relief from the endless barrage of "Cremona Brown".
Sure would have liked to see Sam Bush or John Duffey picking on this sweet baby back in the early days of psychedelic Newgrass!
