2006 Weber Fern FUS-made, Bruce Weber-signed mandolinWow - what a mando! Bruce Weber left Flatiron/Gibson to start making his own mandolins in the '90s, and they've developed an excellent reputation for fit, finish, tone, and value. This Fern is an especially gorgeous model, with well-executed headstock inlay, a beautiful sunburst, and some flame-y woods.It's in excellent shape, and comes in the original hard case. I like my mandolin action really low, so I'd spring for a setup and truss rod adjustment if I was going to keep it - but I've got too much $ tied up in instruments right now and am trying to clean house, so it's gotta go. Comes with a working passive pickup. Sorry, but I don't know the model or maker of the pickup as it was installed before I acquired the mandolin.Starting at $.99 to let the market determine the going price.
