From 1921, but still feels so young! This Mandola has been tenderly loved over the years, and has been refinished, refretted, and also has a replacement nut, bridge, and pickguard, but still projects stronger than ever. This is a very special instrument and it really deserves a loving home. This Mandola has been thoroughly checked over and fully set up by our in-house luthiers and is ready to steal all of your time!
