Hey guys - Does anyone have an opinion of the Aria Pro II PM-800 mando's from the 70's? Thanks

I had a PM-780 from the late 70s/early 80s and it was a real nice mandolin. It played real well and had a great tone - not quite the bark of my Flatiron, but a real nice mandolin anyhow. I sold it last year for $750.00 along with a nice shaped hard-shell case, which I bought new for it.

Hope that this helped.

I also have a late 70's PM-780 (I would imagine it compares to the 800) Great sounding and easy to play.
