And now for something COMPLETELY different! Spotted at @retrofret #Brooklyn on Memorial Day weekend 4 years ago, an impossibly cool original 1951/2 #PaulBigsby 10 string electric #mandolin with original case and correspondence between the purchaser and Bigsby, dated October 1951. Zoom in...you can actually read the letter! Fascinating to read what people did in the days before Internets to get gear recommendations! 😆 #throwback #retrofretvintageguitars #nyc #newyork #electricmandolin #bigsbymandolin #bigsbyguitar #guitar #guitars #guitarra #chitarra #guitarre #electricguitar #vintageguitar #tone #guitargear #guitarsofinstagram #geartalk #guitargear #vintagegear #guitarsdaily #guitarphotography (at Retrofret Vintage Guitars) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bx5IIpIB0lS/?igshid=8yuaebkpmgr0
