One of our favorite oval-soundhole mandolin styles, and the best version of that style as well since it has the asymmetrical body points and the classy pull-out/push-in leg rest on the lower side. Original finish throughout, with some wear through to the mahogany on the neck in 1st position, but only light surface wear to the finish on the body. No cracks anywhere! Original tailpiece, tuners, and pickguard (which has the 11-12-18 patent date stamp). Yes it's been played and there's some fret wear but the frets have a lot of playing hours left in them, and if you'd rather have a fresh set of new frets we can do that at a somewhat reduced charge. Original hardshell case as shown, also in good shape.
