2000s Johnson MA-100 A-Style Archtop Mandolin
Overview: This is a cheap-n-dirty mandolin I took in trade to have another... cheap-n-dirty mandolin available to students in the area. It actually sounds pretty decent and plays nicely after I gave it a good setup. It's bare-bones as heck but it plays a heck of a lot better than what I learned mandolin on!
Repairs included: I gave it a good cleaning, some mild alterations to the bridge, and setup. It's playing spot-on and ready to go.
