Description
Here is a Mike Black A-4 Mandolin from 2024.
This mandolin was made in Lawrence Kansas and features a figured maple sides and back and spruce top with oval sound hole and hide glue construction. The headstock is a snake head style with fleur de lis inlay. The figured maple on the back has a stunning flame which looks wonderful with the tobacco burst finish. The double rope and ivoroid rosette and gold hardware accentuate the beautiful aesthetics.
The A-4 mandolin features a Virzi tone producer which is a thin, light, oval- or teardrop-shaped wide-grain spruce disk suspended or attached inside stringed instruments (such as violins, mandolins, and mandocellos) by small feet or pedestals. It was famously installed by acoustic engineer Lloyd Loar in 1920s Gibson Master Model F-5 mandolins, as well as select classical violins (such as those used by Jascha Heifetz).
This Mike Black A-4 Mandolin is in very good overall condition with very light play wear and fret wear.
It plays cleanly up the neck and comes with the original Crossrock hardshell case.
