I was given an older mandolin the other day...a Czechoslovakian flat-top and flat-back under the name Cremona. I was told it's from the 40's. The headstock resembles a classical guitar and it's got a small oval sound hole. It's in fantastic shape; I only had to spring for new strings and tuners. Does anyone have anything on this brand? Or of mando's from that time and place?
I'll have to post pictures later once I'm back from work.
