This flat mandolin is a vintage item of the 1970s production of "handsome instrument brand" Fields "of Japan.Everything from building to finishing is beautiful, it is a very fine mandolin.Probably the position of the tailpiece has been changed to the sixth string side slightly to improve the bowstring on the first string during play, and the original screw hole is buried (The screw hole is hidden behind the tailpiece and I can not see).Although minor crack marks can be confirmed on the end part of the side plate, this has been repaired, and the current situation is only an appearance problem. There is no problem of strength anxiety and performance problems.Scratches as a whole are few, I think that a very good state is kept as a vintage. It is a dish that does not readily circulate in the market.
