Dave started making my Doyle Lawson mandolin right before the pandemic hit. 18 months later it came in. I just love it and I'm so glad Dave was willing to make me one. It was dated August 12, 2021.
At the Gibson / Flatiron shop in the '90s we made a Bill Monroe signature F-5 that sold for $8500, and was a special order item. We sold a good number of these over the time I worked there. I would imagine these Lawson mandos would bring a similar price, if not more.
That's a beautiful mandolin. I only wish I was the buyer who bought it. I sure hope that beauty is going to be played and not just collected; it needs to be heard... and seen.
David Harvey is putting out instruments that are at Lloyd Loar level or greater quality and tone. A might add that David is an equally as impressive human being.

Holy crap first notes at the begging coming from the speaker on my phone I could tell it's a beast.

We can assure this beauty will be played!
@@AcousticShoppe Thank you so much! I'll sleep better at night knowing that fact. 😄
Gorgeous mandolin with the bound F-holes, gold hardware, and radiused fretboard.Sadly not Waverly, but still good Gibson-Grover tuners.

How bout putting a little money out on better camera equipment. Really enjoy your reviews and demos.
Sounds and looks OK, but my 1991 Charlie Derrrington F5 sounds better. 😉
