Boasting a beautiful sunburst finish, a striking flame maple back, and elegant fern inlay, this Master Model F-5L is a fantastic example from a renaissance era for Gibson mandolins. With a simple ding at the top of the headstock and some basic swirling, this mandolin is an honest, overwhelmingly clean mandolin that was used but well taken care of. As one should expect from any Steve Carlson-signed instrument, this mandolin maintains a beautiful, rich tone up and down the neck with distinct and clear volume. Includes bright red Bobelock HSC.
