Re: Kentucky-brand info
When I got my Kentucky 1050 I got it to play out in places I really didn’t want to take my nicer instruments. I took it to Lynn Dudenbostel to replace the bridge and set it up. He said it sounded better than a lot of high end mandolins that came through his shop. I asked the boys at the Mandolin store to pick the best one that they had in stock when I bought it. Now the only comment I have is that it changes quite a bit from summer to winter. My Collings and my Gibson F4 never change. The 1050 I have to adjust the action twice a year.
