Brunkalla A style Mandolin value?

**Tukanu** · May-08-2018, 10:49am

Any opinions on the value of a Brunkalla A style from 2006. Good overall condition with no issues. Carved spruce top and maple back. Gold hardware, F holes. There are a couple of youtube videos of similar mandolins.
Thanks

Based on this video I'd say this builder makes some really nice sounding and playing instruments. I am impressed with the appearance and sound! The value is hard to determine, but given a price you are being asked, there are those on the cafe who might offer their opinion. It certainly seems to be fair to consider one in this condition below for the high teens and low $2,000, however I could be off by 2-3,000 because of the demand. I will leave that to someone else, but I sure am interested in whether you decide to buy one and what you will say once receiving it.

Thanks for the feedback. I am thinking of selling it but have no idea of its value.

Beautiful mandolin! I would ask $2,300? That is the way this fine, domestic small shop builder hits me. Very good quality instrument in this video. I am glad to learn of this one!
