Description
A 1920s Bruno flat back mandolin .Features:A very attractive inlaid pickguard - multi-ply bindings with nice purfling and an engraved tuner plate cover at the back of the headstock. The top is solid spruce and the back and sides are beautiful figured solid [ prob Brazilian ]rosewood. Thought to have been made by Regal for Bruno. Set up with easy action and plays really well and sweet sounding . It is in excellent condition - all original - no cracks or repairs. Some marks commensurate with age .Considering it is probably 100 years old it is a great survivor in such fine shape . Needs to be seen in the flesh to appreciate the quality and condition.This is fine quality instrument ,beautifully constructed. Comes with good as new TGI mandolin gig bag. I have added a pic from a book on Regal Musical Instruments - page from 1928 catalogue
Offers considered.
