Vega bowl back
By no means I'm looking for a buyer, the classifieds are for that. However I am looking for a value for the Vega bowlback. It was donated to a local theatre and needed some work to repair a couple seams that came loose and a couple tuner gears. The seam repair went perfect and the tuners are now working. Over all the mandolin is in great shape, just has not been played in a long time. It even has the original leather case.
Whatcha think?
Re: Vega bowl back
That case ought to add considerably to the value. If it is in as good shape as the mandolin appears to be, I would guess $450 if you wait for the right buyer. $350 ought to move it with no problem.
I'm not an expert. But I did stay in a Holiday Inn Express once. (And I did pay $300 +s/h for a 1913 Vega Bowlback two years ago.)
