Re: Flatiron A model mandolins...
I paid $1,200.00 for my '84 A5-1 about 7 years ago. At the time I bought it (Gruhn), I had no idea about pre-Gibson, Steve Carlson or pretty much anything. I just figured it was a good mandolin and it was less than the Derrington-signed Gibson A5 that I was also considering ($1,800.00 at that time). My A5-1 is signed by Carlson, for what that's worth (i.e., maybe something in resale, but I'm not selling).
f-d
