Exc(-) condition. This mandolin is really in great playing condition, but has just a few things to mention that make it "exc(-)" condition instead of "exc" condition: The fingerboard extension was cut off cleanly and professionally at the 23rd fret (almost the exact way Sam Bush did his famous old Gibson F); There are a few light dings here and there on the top and sides of the mandolin, with one larger compression mar on the top, located 2" below treble side of bridge; And, there is some moderate fret wear, but not buzzing when played.
     Very nice highly figured Maple back, sides and neck. German Spruce top. Ebony flat fingerboard with pearl dot inlays. Ebony peghead overlay, with Prucha logo and floral pattern pearl inlay. Nickel Schaller tuners. Nickel Prucha 2-pc tailpiece. Ebony adjustable 'Loar style' 2-piece bridge. Strap button professionally installed in side of neck heel.
     This is a great sounding mandolin! It was sold originally to an employee here at our store who selected it after trying out many mandolins that were coming thru our store. A new mandolin like this one sells now for between $3600 and $3850, depending on options, so this one has all the sound, is in very good playing condition, and sounds like a champ, for hundreds less than a new one than a new one.

     Exceptional original condition. Matte sunburst finish. No player wear except slight polishing on back of neck from hands.
     Highly figured Maple back, sides and neck. German Spruce top. Multiple Ivoroid binding throughout. Abalone Fern inlay in peghead.  J. Pruch logo inlaid in peghead. Dot position markers in fingerboard. Handsome sunburst really shows off the wood. Ebony radiused fingerboard with traditional double-cut extension. Extension is scalloped. Ebony 2-pc. bridge. Bone nut. Gold Schaller tuners. Gold Prucha traditional 2-pc. tailpiece.
     The sound is very bold, with a good solid attack. It is a very delightful tone that is open and strong.
