You have never seen a mandolin like this

[Bertram Henze]

Is there a mandolin in that video? All I saw was elderly people talking about other elderly people - at least until 3/4 into the video when they finally started playing something (and then I liked the sound of the younger mandolin better). They might have started the video with some of that, at least for a teaser, but no, a boring history lesson instead.

Thats one neat and one of a kind F-4! It came from the original owner's family and called the Daddy-Quick, I played it and thought it was very nice, great tone, great look as well, has that fine late 20's F-4 voice.

It’s on YouTube : type in: you have never seen a mandolin like this.

Then why didn't you say so?!

Well, I've seen other 1920's F-4's. You mean "this is the best 1920's F-4 I've ever seen"? Or the worst? Or the most representative of the Platonic form of the 1920's F-4?

This is an F-4 that has pearloid fretboard and headstock overlay. Likely it was a standard 1920s F-4 that was returned to the factory I would guess in the 1930s and the owner asked for pearloid. I am guessing he liked the Century of Progress look.
