1980s Epiphone MM-50 Mandolin [*Kalamazoo Collection]
This instrument came from our recently acquired "Kalamazoo Collection." We acquired the collection from a married couple that worked at the original factory from the late 50s until the factory closed in June of 1984. These pieces are uncirculated and mostly untouched in mint or near-mint condition ~ The collection also includes 1000s of pieces of memorabilia, new-old-stock parts, and more ~ reach out with any/all inquiries!
A lovely Japanese-made MM-50 Mandolin! Plays great with low action and sounds wonderful with a charming, dry sound with plenty of projection. It is completely unused with the original plastic on the pickguard so it is essentially in new-old-stock condition with a few minor scuffs on the finish. Includes hardshell case.
