Description

Lovely, Lloyd Loar-era, black-top Gibson A now available. These "snake head" A models always seem to have something extra going on tonally. We hear a seasoned, airy, and more focused tone, with tons of character on tap. Structurally sound, with no back slippage. Pickguard is in great shape. There is no tailpiece cover, but we will gladly source you a reproduction cover if desired. All in all, a versatile and vibey, vintage Gibson oval-hole mandolin.#

Priced with the original hard case.
