I rebuilt this mandolin for the challenge and now it's time to sell. Top and back were separate from the broken sides but the neck was in great shape. Re-glued with new bracing, (X brace replaced ladders) new kerfing and end block. All new Saga hardware and strings. 13 inch scale. Much louder that the original arch top. Satin black paint but neck is original. No case but will pack well. I'm losing money on this sale but it was a good repair.

For Sale: Lebeda Mandolin - $2,075 USD
I bought this mandolin in '05 and I hate to part with it, but I need the cash. Its in excellent shape, needs no setup work, plays and sounds great. Its still opening up. I've lost the tailpiece cover somewhere, and there is one scratch in the lower bout near the F hole. Its just in the finish and not into the wood. Otherwise it has normal playing wear. The frets are in fine shape. Other interested parties have requested sound files. I have tried to use photo booth movies sent via email. I don't know if it worked yet, and I don't think you can get a good idea of tone through audio files on computer anyway. But I'll try to send clips if asked.

Very quick matte finish neck and beautiful matte finish body. Bone 1 1/8" nut and a 13 3/4" scale length.

For Sale: Dearstone Mandolin, Model D-5Mc - $5,000 USD
This instrument is advertised on eBay, as an auction starting at $5,000:ebay.com/itm/Dearstone-Mandoli...5d707c957
I am selling my custom made Dearstone D-5Mc. There are still 2 pictures on Ray Dearstone's website here: dearstone.com/id53.htm (the bottom 2).
The instrument includes 2 fingerboards. I had Ray cut the shape of the original fingerboard to my specifications, which included the shape, no inlays, and 26 frets on the E string. However, about 2 years later I found that I could not adjust my technique to avoid clicking the fingerboard with my pick, so I had him make one a little shorter, with only 21 frets on the E string. Note that both fingerboards do have dots on the side to mark the 5th, 7th, 10th, 12th, and 15th frets. The next to last picture shows the longer fingerboard installed. I ordered this instrument with the same woods as the Dearstone played by Shawn Lane, of the band Blue Highway, thus the top is made of redwood. The original Travelite case is included. A new instrument from Dearstone will cost $9,000 at the time of this listing, and will also include a long waiting period. Here is a chance to get one immediately, for thousands less. I would prefer to be paid through PayPal, or cash. If you would like a 3rd party to verify that this listing is not a scam, you can contact Ray Dearstone directly, as he is aware that I am selling this instrument. His contact info is listed on his website. I will try to answer any questions to the best of my ability. I might even be able to send you a short sound clip, if you are interested. I will ship the instrument as soon as the money clears my account (same day). Thank you and good luck.

For Sale: FS: The Loar LM-600 VS F Style Mandolin - As New! - $550 USD
Up for sale is my The Loar LM-600VS F-Style mandolin in as-new condition. after quite a few attempts it has dawned on me that it's just not that easy to go from a 34" scale on a bass, to a 25.5" scale on a guitar, to a 13" scale on a mando, and my fat fingers just don't adapt too quickly. This one is literally mint, and there's not a mark on it that I can find. Description from Loar's website:"Hand-carved and graduated from solid select tonewoods and featuring a lightweight nitrocellulose finish for incredible projection, The Loar’s LM-600 Professional F-Style mandolin is an accurate replica of an original 1920’s F5-style model.
The hand-buffed tobacco sunburst finish with nitrocellulose lacquer provides a vintage sheen and an authentic pre-war-style bark that will impress even the most avid vintage purist.
The LM-600 features a solid hand-carved spruce top, solid hand-carved figured maple back and sides, a one-piece maple neck with rounded ‘V’ profile, bound ebony fretboard and an abalone and mother-of-pearl custom flower pot headstock inlay.
The LM-600 includes a featherweight case with an embroidered logo."
The mandolin is bone stock, but has recently been set up and plays/sounds great. Included is the original semi hard shell case. I'll include two sets of D'Addario Ricky Skaggs Phosphor Bronze 11-40 strings. New these are $850, and I'm into this one for about $550 so that's what I'm looking to get out of it. Plus actual shipping charges by insured FedEx Ground. Checks and Money Orders much preferred at this price, but will consider PayPal. Ping me at two corgis at yahoo dot com for a quicker response.

For Sale: Handbuilt F5 Artist for sale - $2,200 USD
I have been building Mandolins for myself since 1977. This is the finest piece yet and I would keep it but I built it's twin and plan to keep it forever.
The top is Adirondack Spruce, Back and sides are Western Maple. Maple neck. Radiused fingerboard. Fern Peg head inlay. Lacquer finish
I Tap tuned the top, back and soundbox using Roger Siminoff's techniques. Upon completion, I sent the instrument to Roger and had him perform his "De-damping" process that breaks a new instrument in and rounds out the tone. That process brought both these instruments alive and I highly recommend it to players out there.
This mando is Loud and well balanced, easy to play and a joy to view. I don't hesitate to say it would be at home on any professional stage or recording session.
Please contact me if you are interested in owning a fine hand built instrument at a very fair price.
More photos on request.
