Any Love for a Vintage Gibson F-12?
I'm thinking about listing my 1949 F-12 Mandolin here on the Cafe. I wonder if there is any interest in that model? I'm aware that the F-5s are rather more popular in the Gibson line. On the good side, it's in marvelous condition and has the original hard shell case. It's been in my family since 1949 as I inherited it from my Uncle in 1982 and have hardly played it.
I was on the Cafe here several years ago and for reasons having nothing to do with the Cafe, I quit posting. I won't quit playing mandolin as have two other mandolins that I will be keeping: A 1964 Martin "A" and a 1917 Gibson "A3".
My questions about listing it have to do mainly with posting photos. Are those done within the listing? I didn't see a place to insert them.
I know that once it sells, a 2% fee is requested and that's really quite reasonable and would be no problem.
I also wondered if it's required to take returns if for some reason the buyer is not satisfied. I'd be very concerned about shipping.
Just curious. Thanks for any responses. If this is in the wrong location, moderator please move it.
1917 Gibson A-3, '64 Martin A, 2016 Rhodes F5R.
