(Serial No. 13030215) Excellent plus condition. Kentucky issued this mandolin as a tribute to the only A5 Loar made, and they went all out to make a great mandolin. (the current tribute model is the KM950). The instrument is hand carved from all solid woods, and has a Cremona Brown sunburst lacquer finish with flamed maple back and sides, Adirondack red spruce top with tone bar bracing, fully bound with ivoroid binding, ebony fretboard and bridge, traditional pearl nut, ebony peghead overlay with the logo and inlay in pearl, and Gotah tuners with pearl buttons. No repairs or issues of any kind. Nice low action as the mandolin was just set up. Excellent tone and volume with a good woody chop.
