Check out the Northfield Calhoun classified if you haven't already done so. Nice little mandolin!
If I were thinking about buying my first mando, or graduating from one of those $150 starter instruments, or getting one for my kid, I would so jump on this. Or a mandolin to take camping or whatever.
Under $800 (without case). I thought they were attaching pick guards to the faces of these, but apparently that was either something else or they've changed the design, which is good, IMHO.
Here's a video of Emory playing the bejebbers out of one.
