Any Kentucky A owners out there know the difference between the 250, and the 300 level As? The 250 has all solid woods (and I note that the 250 ads say "carved" where the 380 doesn't say carved), and I've been told to stay away from the 300 laminates, but then why the higher price for the laminate back 300s? And, then, is the only difference between the 380 and the 250 (besides color) the neck extension? And will I kick myself for not having a neck extension? Any other recomendations about this entry level mandos from Kentucky owners? I recognize that fit and finish will be sub-American, but I can live with that for a entry level mando. And one last thing... anybody have folkofthewood experience? Will they "handpick" mandos for you? I get the impression that musiciansfriend won't. Nobody around these parts stocks Kentucky. (I know I should go buy a Gibson, but it's better for all parties concerned (me) if I ease my way into this, even if that means I spend twice as much money.)
