This Glaser Mandocaster is a rare and unique instrument, with only a handful ever made. Crafted by Joe Glaser in the 1980s, it features a striking flamed maple top paired with a beautifully figured flamed maple neck and an ebony fingerboard. Equipped with pickups in both the neck and bridge positions, this Mandocaster delivers a wide tonal range, making it highly versatile. Cosmetically, it's in excellent overall condition, showing only moderate signs of wear. It includes a hardshell case for protection.
*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.
