Hi, I'm new to this forum, and Mandolins but was directed here from a Guild forum.
Found this little Mandolin in a Charity Shop for £25, I didnt think it was gonna be playable but it was pretty enough to just hang on on the wall, Got it home and tuned it up and its not got a bad sound!
The tuners are hopeless, and there is quite a nasty crack on the top, and the seams on the back are coming apart in places but its good enough to strum around the house # #
No label inside to say who it is made by, and when but the tuners are stamped 'Germany'
here's some pics
There is a folk music shop in town full of old Mandolins, Ukes etc so I might try and find out how much it would be to get the cracks glued, replace tuners etc
