FS: Mandolin - J Bovier Tradition (SOLD)

My main mandolin has to go :cry: .

Going to be playing mostly ukulele and fiddle in the band in future, and as I need a decent tenor uke, and I am broke, I have to sell the J Bovier F style that I have so enjoyed gigging with.

I’m asking £249 + £15 insured postage (UK).

In the TAMCO store (UK’s main mandoln specialist) these go for £575 + £15 postage. Check it out: http://www.theacousticmusicco.co.uk/

Mine has some wear to the finish (back of the neck) and a bit of dulling due to over-polishing, but it is in great structural and functional condition. Good action, a nice player and I reckon it sounds great.

£249 is a total bargain, but then I’m desperate. :frowning:

For the price I’m including a rigid case, Sam Bush Mandolin Method 2 DVD set, strap and a heap of picks including Wegen and Bluechip.

Please contact for questions, more pics etc.

Price dropped to £229 :frowning:

Price includes:

  • J Bovier Tradition F5 mandolin
  • Rigid case
  • Cumberland Acoustics armrest
  • Intellitouch clip-on tuner
  • Dozens of assorted picks (including Wegen and Bluechip)
  • Leather strap
  • Anthony Warde Irish Mandolin DVD
  • Sam Bush Mandolin Method double DVD set with tabs.

Rick, you might want to elaborate on the value of those accessories. They make this a bargain.

Thanks Tim. You’re right.

Anyway, the mandolin is sold.

Thanks people.

Well, congrats to whoever. That was a very nice package.

I hope we can expect a ‘Got my new ukulele’ thread soon.
