Red Diamond Mandolins - A5

Build Year: 1980
Serial: 302

Very early Don MacRostie build with outstanding one piece back in a golden red finish.

This is actually Don MacRostie's 18th or 19th build -- in spite of the S/N 302. It has the earliest inlay on the headstock. About 2 0r 3 builds later he started putting the Red Diamond script on the headstock. This mandolin shows that Don had the tone dialed in at the onset of his building.
