Will you look at the wood on this one! What do you expect as this was the poster boy Mandolin at the Winter 2007 NAMM Show. It does have some wear as it was picked up and played, but is otherwise a new mandolin. Please note the close-up showing the worst of the wear.
This one has also been finished the old school way and this means the finish is Mineral Spirits Varnish.
Here's a link directly to Eastman for this model:

It should be noted that Eastman charges extra for the Mineral Spirit finish and not to mention that this Mandolin was hand selected for presentation at the NAMM Show.
It's being sold without a warranty as I'm not an Eastman Dealer.
