Re: Vintage style newer oval hole A mandolins: which make is best
For me, I would go Old Wave and specify your desired board width. I've played a couple of Bill's instruments and they have the sound I like and they have a great aesthetic. Plus you get to work with Bill. He can also help you chose front/back woods to color your tone to what you're looking for as well. One more if you have a tighter budget, is a Breedlove AO from their line (American/Quartz) and up. You can get a used Quartz AO for under $900 fairly often and it may fit neck requirement too. BTW, all of the ones you mention will have different sounds.
