Typical period features, nicely aged 'pumpkin' finish top, bridge with individual saddle inserts. A typical example with a warm 'woody' sound and a good sparkle to the top end.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eOverall length is 25 13\/16 in. (65.6 cm.), 10 in. (25.4 cm.) width, and 1 13\/16 in. (4.6 cm.) deep. Scale length is 14 in. (356 mm.). \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAll original finish and hardware except missing pickguard. Some heavy pickwear to the top in the area where the pickguard would have been (Oy! That's why they put a pickguard on it..!) and finish wear on the lower side. Plays and sounds very well; a good \"gigging\" example of a pumpkin-top A, with a good solid original HSC with a lot of wear to the covering. Very Good + Condition.","brand":"Gibson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46853101060236,"sku":"2614","price":1200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0672\/8702\/3756\/files\/01_5e382682-ba89-48d2-9e40-760abd899c14.jpg?v=1774331436","url":"https:\/\/retrofret.com\/products\/gibson-style-a-carved-top-mandolin-1916-2614","provider":"RetroFret","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
