Anyone looking for an entry level mandolin on a budget? This Johnson, MA-120 model A style might be your huckleberry. A simple, but nice playing A that comes in a nice all black finish. Low action with a bound fingerboard, this instrument plays well with virtually no fret wear. This could be a nice addition for any musician looking to add an inexpensive mandolin to the arsenal. Light cosmetic wear is present throughout. A non problematic center-seam crack present on the back side, and light binding separation is present along the top. Comes with a poly foam case.
