The all new KM-1000 is hand-carved and graduated from the finest mountain spruce and Northern maple.

This is one of the most recent Mando models offered by Kentucky. This simply is an incomparable value for those looking for a mando that offers high-end pro features normally found on mandos exceeding in cost of 4000.00.

This is a mando that essentially emulates that of original vintage instruments that sell for 40,000.00. The peghead has a pearl and abalone inlay unique only to this model. This flowerpot design is copied directly from a 15th century mosaic design from Asia.

See this mando being played on a video sampler:

Date: Thu, 29 Jun 2000 Mickey and staff... Had foot surgery last Friday ....so I've been wearing the KM1000 out!! (and the Goodtime too!) Got my hands on a copy of your crosspicking book...looks like one of the better tomes I've seen on mandos'... the arrangment of Soldier's Joy kicks! I also like John McEuen rippining it on Uncle Daves old machine!! Hey, could you send a bumper (guitar case) sticker with that dobro if you have any? Thanks. Frank Parker
