Epiphone MM-45 Model Arch Top Mandolin, c. 1982, made in Japan, serial # N-025, sunburst finish, maple back, sides and neck, spruce top, rpsewood fingerboard, black hard shell case.
Overall length is 27 1/4 in. (69.2 cm.), 10 in. (25.4 cm.) across at the widest point, and 1 13/16 in. (4.6 cm.) in depth, measured at side of rim. Scale length is 13 3/4 in. (349 mm.). Width of nut is 1 1/8 in. (29 mm.). Very clean overall, hardly any play wear just a bit of clouding to the finish in the cutaways and adjacent side areas. Appears hardly played, a nice example of a better-grade Japanese-made mandolin from the 1980's. Plays excellently with a surprisingly good tone. Includes a modern HSC. Excellent + Condition.
