I think it's time this F-4 gets its own thread. I privately call this mandolin the most viewed Gibson of all-time (maybe outside of Monroe's F-5) since it has probably appeared on eBay at least, what, 250 times? More? For those of you that have trouble distinguishing right from wrong, you never reply to an ad where a seller embeds an email address inside of an image, which I'll attach below. These are all compromised eBay accounts so in this case this account has over 11,000+ transactions and a really nice rating. 24 hour sale to try to beat eBay to figuring out it's a fraud. No use in linking to it really as it'll reappear many times more in the next 30 days and long after.
Anything else missed here? The other reason for saving this information here is hopefully Google and specialty ad search engines will be able to find the images here to assist in alerting someone that might actually bid on this one.
I've never paid attention to the serial number to see if it's consistent from ad to ad. Anyone know?
Pity the poor person that actually owns this instrument...
