Hi all!
I am definitely no expert on Gibson serials, FON and so on...I have always relied on the Mandolin Archive to provide rough dating for instruments, so please excuse me if the question is silly.
I know of a guy who is selling a Gibson A2, serial number 76925 with factory order number 11710. He states it's a 1920...but wouldn't serial put it in the summer/fall 1924 time frame?
Also, this instrument has a truss rod...how can it be 1920?
It's Sheraton brown finish and it is NOT snakehead.
What sense do you guys make of this? AND, assuming I might be interested in acquiring it (which I still haven't made my mind up about), what is a fair asking price? Some 1500$? More?
Thanks,
Matt.
