    Default 2013 Gibson F5 Fern

    My 2013 Gibson F5 Fern arrived today and it’s signed by David Harvey. I want to say thanks to Dennis at The Mandolin Store. What a great guy to work with! It tough purchasing an instrument over the internet but his description of the mandolin the playability and sound of that mandolin was everything he said it would be and more!
