Thread: Can anyone identify this mandolin?

  1. #1

    Default Can anyone identify this mandolin?

    Mando solo begins at 3:00 but it's a nice song to watch all the way through. I love the tone of this mandolin. Of course there's a great player, great acoustics, sound system etc but I still like sound enough to want to know what he's playing.

    Tuner covers up the name on the headstock. Doesn't look like a Collings headstock. Maybe Weber?

    I had a Weber Ancient Age A that had a headstock shaped the same at that, Weber would be my guess.

    I think that may be Richard Kriehn, playing his Ellis A.

    I think you are correct.
