Fender FM 52e acoustic electric mandolin. i bought this last spring hoping i would have time to learn how to play it...but i've yet to spend much time with it at all. it's in good shape and everything works, has two small places on the fretboard binding where there were tiny burrs that i filed down...zero affect on playing...it also has a few pick marks on the pickguard...the rest of the mandolin is gorgeous with a nice deep traditional finish and the pickup sounds good with responsive tone and volume controls.

"A Style" mandolin fetures a single coil pickup with volume and tone controls. A spruce top, nato neck, back and sides and rosewood fingerboard bridge complete the appointments on this affordable instrument. Case not included.
Model Name FM52E Mandolin
Series Fender Mandolin Series
Body "A" Style Slim-line Mandolin
Top Laminated Spruce
Back Laminated Nato
Sides Laminated Nato
Neck Nato
Fingerboard Rosewood (9.96")
Frets 21
Bridge Rosewood, Compensated Height Adjustable
Machine Heads Chrome, 4-In-Line w/White Plastic Buttons
Pickups 1 Special Design Single Coil Pickup
Scale Length 13.7"
Body Depth 1.85"
Width At Nut 1.12"
Width At Heel NA "
So i'm looking to either trade it for a small practice amp such as a Tech 21 Trademark 10, Vox ad30vt, or a Roland Cube 60.
and for a straight sale...i'll go $120 + shipping...i believe these are going for $239 on musician's fiend currently and about $150 on flea bay...which is where it will go if there are no bites here in a couple of days.
thanks,
mike
