    Default Can you ID this Kentucky?

    I searched pictures all through the internet last night but can't find the had stock art on any models. Can you ID it?

    You'll need to go back through older versions. That mandolin is not recent.

    Similar head stock art to this KM-700 from 2008 that I sold. Similar fretboard marks. But yours has a Florida extension, this one doesn't. Old flip phone photos from 2016.

    I have owned 4 different Kentucky models; A KM-800 from about 1984 made in Japan. A KM-675 from 2005 made in China. A 2012 made in China KM-805 plus the KM-700 I just pictured and none matches that exactly. Have you tried Tony Molyneaux at Saga Instruments? I believe the email is;

    info@sagamusic.com

    The more photos you can provide the better it will be for him to ID it.

    I was thinking it was a km700 as well.

    Drop "Florida" behind Kentucky KM700 and this popped up....looks a lot like the picture.

    That's about as close as it gets. Does it have a serial number anywhere, or no label at all?
