With your budget I would look at Flatiron Y2K's

Hey Unseen122,
What big guitar show are you going to? Me, I am going to the Great American Guitar Show in Ft. Washington, PA.(6/26 & 6/27) I think it's billed as the Philly Great ........
Good Luck!

Yeah, that is the one I am going to, I am going on Saturday (6/26). Can't wait last time I went I bought a guitar body for $20 (finished solid body at the Stew Mac booth) haven't finished building it yet. http://www.mandolincafe.net/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/mandosmiley.gif

You sure a Flatrion Y2K is in my budget? I have never done a trade before so I may be suprised.
Since there is no such animal I'd say it's well within your budget. http://www.mandolincafe.net/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif
Weber makes the Y2K.......BTW
Here's a link to a Flatiron 2K... #Flatiron (http://www.morganmusic.com/webpics/bluegrass/fla%202k.JPG)

I think Greenmando means the year Y2K not the model #. So much anticipation for this show.
ARGH !..... # Weber Y2k (http://www.soundtoearth.com/inst_ma_y2k3.htm)

Dale just can't imagine why anyone would want to trade up from a Johnson MA-100. It's his favorite model! http://www.mandolincafe.net/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif

Forgot to mention my other mando a cheap hand made in mexico no name piece of #### so I got 2 mandos and $140 maybe something good is waiting for me.
Used Johnson MA-100 + $150 = Weber Y2K Really??
