Condition
This is a never owned Refurbished Instrument*. We carefully select much of our inventory from the nation's largest Factory Authorized Instrument Refubisher. While this can't be sold as new it is as close to new as you can get with a very nice price break. The instrument will play great on day one and 30 years from now!

These are a model change - close outs - we believe this color was discontinued, and this may not have passed QC due to a scratch on the back.   Upon very close inspection we could not find a thing out of place on this instrument, it plays beautifully, needed nothing, received set-up and here it is.

It does have one really minor cosmetic flaw on the back - see photo of surface scratch - this could likely be polished or sanded out but we didn't touch it. Be aware that the matte black top finish has a bit of a raised texture to it - its a pretty cool color and looks cool but it does not have a deep clear coat finish on it like many instruments. So instead of this being available for the MSRP of $799.99 you can buy it now for just $469.99 a really nice savings on a great Michael Kelly Mandolin. Shipping is FREE! Shipping is FREE!

Photos: We do our best with photos and they are always photos of the actual instrument for sale. We do not use stock photos. Often times you will see some shadows, glare, or dust specks in a photo, these are not defects - any instruments with a cosmetic defect will be fully noted and circled.

* Factory Authorized Refurbished - We are a full disclosure seller with 25+ years experience - We want you to be happy and no sale is every made without you fully knowing about the instrument you are purchasing. Guitars we sell that are Refurbished are typically:

A) Closeout = Simply the end of a model run.

B) Needed a minor repair = Needed a string, a battery, re-solder and other very minor repairs.

C) Slight Cosmetic blemishes = Large manufactures are not going to
refinish a guitar with a slight finish flaw or a scratch. Cosmetic flaws are either repaired to like new or we let you know of anything you should know about and include a photo.

All our refurbished guitars will carry a light "U" or "Used" stamp on the back of the head stock and are given a new serial number by the refurbisher.
