Re: Old Kentucky A Style Info.
This look s just like the Kentucky mandolin I bought new in 1989. Their claim to fame was that the top was solid and they were cheap. It could be anywhere from there forward. I bought mine from Stan Jay at Mandolin Bros and sold it in the late 90's. I think mine was made in Japan. Is there still a label inside the sound holes?
