As far as I know Morgan Monroe only makes one beanblossom Mando

There are at least four. F hole, oval hole and acoustic/electric f hole "A" style mandos and an "F" style.
Here are the three "A" style. (http://www.folkofthewood.com/page3504.htm)

I have two. I have the bm 2 the a style with oval hole and the mms 2 carved top f style. The F plays much easier than the a but for the price difference it should. I think both are great mandolins and even though they are made in Korea I believe they will be some of the better instruments in time to come.

Now you should know that I live in Brown County Indiana (home of the Bill Monroe Blue Grass Festival in Beanbloosom) the two counties that border Brown are...Morgan and Monroe, the neme sake of the Morgan Monroe and Beanbloosom Mandolin.

Just my two cents worth
