A great mandolin for anyone looking for that classic Gibson sound and look in an instrument they can feel comfortable bringing to the next festival!
Just into the shop, this 2005 Gibson F5G mandolin! Classic appointments and tone from the company that started it all.
Condition: This mandolin has been played a lot over the years, and displays the wear associated with an instrument that has been well-loved and seen it's share of gigs and bluegrass jams. Pick-wear, surface scratches, and some buckle wear are apparent throughout, as well as a few more noticeable dings on the lower point and light wear on the treble-side F-hole. There is mild fretwear on the A and E strings in first position, but nothing that affects playability; and after a fresh setup in our shop, this F5 is playing and sounding great! All that to say - a great mandolin for anyone looking for that classic Gibson sound and look in an instrument they can feel comfortable bringing to the next festival. Priced with molded hardshell case, which has also seen some wear and tear.
