Some shots of my '88 Gibson A5-L

[sjhoffma]

Been lurking around this forum for over a year now, I think it's about time I made a post! Finally got around to taking some photos of my 1988 Gibson A5-L signed by Steve Carlson. Depending on the light the finish changes from a light brown, to a deeper cherry hue, to an almost tangerine sort of burst. It's the nicest A5-L I have ever seen or played. Fit and finish are exquisite. I picked her up from Cotten Music last April and have hardly put her down since!

Beautiful Sam.
I think that's the prettiest A5-L that I've seen.
Congrats.

These A5-L are not very common mandolins? I really like the pictures! And how is the sound?
