I am trying to decide whether to sell my '14, black topped F2 which is a great playing and looking survivor complete with nice working Handel tuners. I also have a Custom, "one off" Old Wave Oval A #459 that Bill and I created in his "laboratory" at the end of Old Wave Holler. My current interest is in the Weber Custom Vintage F and A models. As I understand it, Weber used a stash of old tone wood in building these 2 models and others as well between '07 and '09. I am much more disposed toward the ovals for the music I play. I was also interested to hear fellow New Mexican Brian Kimsey's thoughts about a Black Face F he worked on that was for sale some years back.
Does anyone know whether there were many of these mandolins produced in Black?
Has anyone..previous or current owner....had a chance to A/B these with similar Vintage Gibsons?.........or have any other thoughts?
Thanks in advance.
