I do not make any money on shipping- in fact, I often lose a few dollars on shipping on a full sized guitar, because the shipping calculator doesn't add it up right. Based upon actual weight and size of the shipping carton that will be used. This is calculated by eBay/UPS shipping calculator. Check the Q&A on the listing, I always post answers to any questions that I receive directly to the listing. And I want to protect myself and serious bidders from this type of thing. Should protect it from just about anything! I reserve the right to delete bids by anyone with less than 10 feedback- I've been scammed lately by a couple of sham bidders who bid just to block another bid. Comes with a non-original foam-core corder semi hard case. more play it enough, so it deserves a home where it will get played. I have two mandos, and I received the other one as a gift, so I'm selling this one. That's the reason that I picked it up originally. A little bit of fret wear, but plenty of life left, and plays like a dream. Structurally great, solid, in good condition. Some picking wear to top, typical from strumming. I can only assume that it went in and out of the house on a few cold days too quickly, without time to acclimate to the temperature change. And it has quite a bit of finish checking(see pics) Not sure what happened, but that's the risk of a hand made instrument with a lacquer finish. With a loud, clear bark! Nice tone, plays great. Similar to the old G-n Army Navy style of mando. Please ask and make arrangements prior to placing a bid. Don't just assume that you may pick this instrument up locally.

Additionally, crack shows no depth where it ends at `f' hole. Not visible when underside of top is viewed with mirror. We've seen this before on Montana built Flatirons. One finish crack that runs from corner of lower point to the treble f-hole.
Has a few smallish lacquer dings and superficial scratches on the top. Delightful! Excellent-plus condition considering she's a twenty-three year old. Clear, crisp and extremely dry tones with excellent volume and a robust bluegrass chop.
