1939 Gibson A-50 Wide Body Mandolin w/ Case

Description

1939 Gibson A-50 Wide Body Mandolin w/ Original Case. The mandolin came to us on its death bed. The pickguard badly deteriorated and cracks, open seams and loose bass tone bar. We removed the back reset all loose linings, blocks and tone bars; reset the back and ordered a new Cumberland Acoustic deluxe pickguard and set it up and its playing excellent!! neck is straight as an arrow and you can get the action as low as you want. The bridge and tailpiece are original and the original tuners will come in the case but the mandolin has new Grover tuners and thew work fantastic. This is a very playable mandolin and is ready for the stage or studio!! The original case is a bit beat up but its all there. Very cool vintage Gibson mandolin! Thanks for looking!
