Condition NotesWell but desirably warn, tone is gorgeous and pronounced. Plays beautifully.
This 1923 Gibson F-4 mandolin comes from a golden era of Gibson craftsmanship and has all the character players look for in a seasoned instrument. The finish and appointments show well but desirably worn playwear, giving it a warm, vintage aesthetic without compromising integrity or performance. Tonally, it’s gorgeous and pronounced, with a rich, vocal midrange and plenty of projection that responds beautifully to both delicate tremolo and more aggressive picking. Playability is excellent, making this F-4 a compelling choice for the serious mandolin player who wants a soulful, century-old instrument that’s ready for the stage or studio.  Comes with a Bobelock case.
*When using Affirm, we charge an additional 3.5% fee on the total at checkout. The majority of our instruments are consignment, where CVG keeps a small percentage of each sale. To be able to cover the additional costs required to offer financing, we have to include a higher fee to the customer. The 3.5% fee will be included in and spread across your Affirm payments.
