Looks a little rough around the edges (only #15). This mandolin has been or Reverb for months and at a lower price I believe. Seem to remember it being listed on the café quite a while ago as well.

I owned #24 and it had it's rough elements but overall very nice. I'm sure Gerald's builds got more refined as he continued. Anybody on here own #24?

I don't know the market, but it looks like a fine quality build.
I've got Gerald's #120. It is an A5 and from 2006. It has some wear but it sounds great, plays great and it a very good overall mandolin. The workmanship is B+ with a few minor detail points that detract, but only from close examination. They don't hurt the playability or the sound. It is not a bad back up to my Elkhorn.
