This vintage 1928 Gibson Style A Mandolin is in Very Good condition, and plays extremely well. All original here, including the PAT # adjustable bridge, tuners which function perfectly, and a gorgeous black top finish. It has a small, tight crack in the back at the lower bout, as well as some minor nicks and playwear, but is in otherwise great shape especially for an instrument of its age. It has a very nice and straight neck, with a fully functional adjustable truss rod. The frets remain at a good height, and its sound is rich with good volume. This 1928 Gibson Style A Mandolin comes with its worn but original soft case.
