Brian McLeod 0 Posted April 8, 2020 Report Share Posted April 8, 2020 Hi, I have a 1939 Mandolin with FON # EG-6964. I'm having trouble figuring out the model. A50 or A00? How can I tell the difference? Can you help? Pics are attached. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
slimt 143 Posted April 13, 2020 Report Share Posted April 13, 2020 I believe a A00 did not have a Bound back. A 50s did. Now you have a side view picture of the fingerboard to body? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
John Rosett 0 Posted February 16 Report Share Posted February 16 Late to this topic, but... That's an 1939 A-1. A-50's from that period had pearl inlay and a bound fingerboard. The A-00 had a back brace visible through the sound holes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
