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.
