❌SOLD❌ Gibson F2 Mandolin Black, 1911

On November 6, 2019 /

Built from 1904 to 1934, the Gibson F2 mandolin featured the stylized ‘F’ body with scrollwork, but also an oval sound hole rather than F-holes. Oval sound holes seem to provide a bit more sound to the player, while F-hole models tend to project their sound outwards, further. It’s always fascinating to see an instrument like this Gibson F2 mandolin, now over a century old and still in good playing condition.
