I am planning attend a classical mandolin festival in Germany, but I am worried about the materials in my Gibson K2 and the TSA. I am looking at the paperwork for an "instrument passport" certificate, but it asks lots of detail. Rosewood? Ebony? Pearl inlay?
I wonder if any of you have run into trouble with this. When I went to Mexico a couple years ago, I bought a $175 mandolin just for the trip, just in case. But that was just for jamming with my wife and her fold-up "tranjo." This time it's serious performance and orchestral music.
What I am looking for is information about the materials (I keep looking but get "for sale" and serial number-date information.) and any word on international travel.
Anybody?
Thanks,
Doc
