Why would anyone need five guitars but only one mandolin?![]()

The guitar in the center looks like about a 1945 L-50 (or maybe L-48) what is the year and model of the arch top on the far right in the photo?

Due to current budgetary restrictions the light at the end of the tunnel has been turned off -- sorry about the inconvenience.
From Left to Right.
1967 Southern jumbo
1968 Stratocaster.
1950 L50
1963 6124 Gretsch
1946 L48 I believe this was the only year for the trapizoid inlays. It does sport the small f holes like the L50
The Mandolin is a A model 1918.
Nice collection, something for every mood. Being particularly fond of acoustic archtops, I'll ask: does the early L-48 have a solid spruce top?
Great selection of guitars plus the mandolin you featured the other day which looked like a really great buy.
I could do a little better... I agree
Look better? Below?

That's a nice cache of git-jos.
