Hey Ladies and Gents
I am a first time poster yet long time follower. I thoroughly enjoy following this forum and picking my mandolin and my guitars.
I currently have a Kentucky KM-252 which not only is Beautiful but sounds Awesome as well. I am getting ready to pull the trigger on a upgrade mandolin and I am strongly considering the Kentucky KM-1050.
I have followed this thread for many months now and see a tremendous amount of great feedback for the KM-1050 as well as the KM-1500 mandolins, Northfield F5S which look and sound awesome have popped up, in this price point as well but I haven't found any less than $2700 at the point of thread starting.
I openly admit I am a true fan of the Kentucky Mandolins, I love their apparent quality, fantastic sound, as well as beautiful appointments, plus i don't live far from Bill Monroe's Hometown so I guess Kentucky runs in my blood but, i'm very open minded as well as willing to look at others, when it comes to spending $1500 to $2000 for a new to me ( don't mind buying mint or near mint used) instruments.
My question as you might guess in any of your opinions is there a overall, no question ask, no doubt in your mind, better mandolin out there, in this price point than the Kentucky KM-1050 worthy of looking at before i pull the trigger on this fine instrument ?
