A very nice 2023 David Cohen A Style mandolin made in Fort Bragg, California. This mandolin features a carbon fiber neck and Cohen's own asymmetrical radial bracing system. The small hole on the left side of the neck block is a handy way for attaching your strap. There's some edgewear on the back of the headstock, and the body has some light and expected wear from play, but no significant scratches or dents and overall cosmetic condition is excellent. The carbon fiber neck is nice and straight and feels smooth and comfortable in the hand. This mandolin has a pleasant woody tone, courtesy of the redwood top, while the maple body and crescent sound holes keep everything tight and punchy. Set up for low action with medium phosphor bronze round wound strings.
