I bought this Gypsy Vagabond mandolin directly from Walt at Gypsy Music earlier this year, and have played it at home only a handful of times. It's in essentially new condition. This mandolin is hand crafted in the US. The neck width measures 1 3/8" at the nut. The original gig bag and a braided leather are included.
