For sale is an incredible Gibson snakehead A Mandolin in original condition with original hardshell case. It’s hard to make out the serial number. I believe the serial number to be a 1925 but the FON is 8625 putting it at a 1927 date. It is all original from tailpiece to bridge to pickguard and clamp to tuners. Believe the back and sides to be maple based upon the flame. It is in great condition with only some wear in the finish where the right arm crosses over the back and a very small surface crack on the treble side just above the binding. Please refer to the picture of small 1/4” crack and additional picture of the  inside that shows it does not seem to go all way through. Great playability and great tone. Original frets in great shape. The original case even has two of its keys. $2850 (shipping included in the United States)
