1960 Gibson EM-150 serial number R6637-29
The electric version of the Gibson A50, which was the workhorse of the post-war mandolin world. The EM150, on the other hand, is today a symbol of retro pizazz. Like the A50, specifications include 10 inch body, 13 7/8 inch scale, adjustable bridge, truss rod, maple back and sides, spruce top, mahogany neck, orange post-war Gibson logo in peg head, dot inlaid position markers and single white binding front and back. However, this little monster is souped up with P90 pick-up, quarter-inch jack and gold volume and tone knobs. Many players familiar with the P90 dig the cool sound of the early days of electric music. All original, excellent condition and electronics in perfect working order. This mandolin is set up with great intonaiton and playability. Whether you pound the blues, gyrate some rock or twang the country, this is the little stage axe that gets the job done. Only $1875, includes UPS ground shipping in continental US.
