I have been without a mandolin for some time. I was finally able to shop for one in a fairly small price range. I went to see my longtime friends, Walter and Christie. I had a wonderful experience from top to bottom. Everyone there was very helpful. I have to use a wheelchair to get around and the whole staff was a great help. I was pretty sure I wanted a particular mandolin I saw on their website. They quickly found it for me and showed me others similar to what I asked about. They were very patient. Paul, also an old friend, was my salesman. I chose the mandolin I went in to see, and I am very happy with the mandolin and the entire deal. I was able to purchase a Gibson Sam Bush model. It is 14 years old, has some wear marks and has been played a lot. It needed some set up work, which I did myself, and that was it. It sounds and plays just as I have dreamed for the past several years. My chops are not that good after not playing for a good while, but they are coming back.
I will recommend Carter Vintage to all who ask, as I have for the past few years. Both Walter and Christy took a bit of time to see me and catch up on things. I want to thank them for a very wonderful experience from start to finish. They did everything they could to help me make a purchase that was really over my head. I hope they are blessed for many years!
