This instrument was purchased a while ago from Shimokura Gakki and has been used. I received it and have kept it in the closet. I will also include the used picks as they are. The user's name is written inside the mandolin, so please purchase it if you don't mind. Watanabe Mandolin Workshop Author: Seiji Watanabe The strings have been put on for the photos, but they are old, so I recommend restringing them. The mandolin itself and the case have quite a few scratches. Please consider this with your understanding.
