1924 Gibson H1 Mandola

Imagine our excitement opening this beautiful case for the first time. Yes,we do have a good job! Unfortunately we do have to sell some of what comesthrough. So we offer you this super-clean Lloyd Loar period blackface H-1mandola. Who doesn't long for that beautiful voice going down to "C"? It'sgot more cut than many mandolas, making it ideal for ensemble playing, wherethe 'dola can often be lost. It has very little playwear, but the originalfrets have been dressed quite low. The tuners are fine. We repaired ahairline top-crack next to the fingerboard, it is otherwise crack free.There is a little wear from the pickguard clamp. You will not find a moredesirable Loar H-1. And, we'll throw in the original hard case, too.
