The following are just a few of the many mandolins built by Jerry L. Rosa, Sr. All mandolins are patterned after a 1924 Lloyd Loar "killer" mandolin that Jerry repaired many years ago. Standard mandolins start at $5,995. Custom mandolins will vary in price depending on the amount of customization. Carmine D'Amico, New York - winner of 24 Grammy Awards, owns this F5C-10 Custom 10 String Mandolin.
This mandolin has been on display at the American Guitar Museum In New York.
David Condren, Ballwin, MO - F5 Standard Full Size Mandolin
Allison Vaughn, Missouri - She was only 3 years old when we received a commission to build her mandolin! F5-3/4 Custom 3/4 Size F5 (similar to 3/4 size violin, except this mandolin has a full size sound!)
Jenny Vaughn, Missouri - Jenny is Allison's big sister and a very good mandolin player! F5 - Standard Full Size Mandolin

Don Pipes, Missouri F5 - Standard Full Size Mandolin (photos while under construction)
This was Jerry's stage mandolin for years. It was recently sold to Kitty Smasal, Minnesota.
This mandolin was built May 1990 and subsequently sold to Ryuji Takagi in Japan!
