Re: Harmony A style Mandolin Model H8018
Someone offered me one of these mandolins last night for my appraisal, and I guesstimated $75. The one I saw had a bit of a back-bend in the neck, with resultant too-low action, so I downgraded it.
They really are very common, aren't they? Wonder what factory turned them out; since we're talking 30 years ago, I'd guess in Japan or Korea, rather than China?
