Enter for your chance to win a Michael Kelly Legacy Elegante Mandolin! Sweepstakes ends June 15, 2009 at 11:59 pm ET. This contest brought to you by Mel Bay Publications, Inc. with the help of our friends at Michael Kelly Guitar Company. Here is a description of this amazing instrument from the Michael Kelly website.

A Michael Kelly masterpiece, that is how you might describe the Legacy Eleganté. This top of the line model has every upgrade available in appearance and tone. As with all MK mandolins we start with a solid hand carved spruce top. On the Eleganté however our craftsman spend more time carefully carving and graduating the top for the best possible sound. The back and sides are all solid flame maple and the fingerboard is hand selected premium ebony. With this no-compromises instrument you will also get our new upgraded solid tailpiece that has more mass for increased tone and a design that eliminates rattles and makes string changes faster and easier than ever before. The Eleganté is topped off perfectly with stunning flame maple binding. This exotic wood accent allows the Eleganté to stand out from the crowd in looks as well as with its big booming tone.

    on a world wide website it is a pity that an opportunity of this kind is restricted to US residents. Mel Bay sell worldwide. Oh well!

    Bill, I’m sorry we were not able to offer this Mandolin Contest worldwide. I’m not sure the entire reason behind it, but I’m pretty sure the sweepstakes was restricted to the US due to legal complications with multinational sweepstakes.

    Have the rules been changed and the contest extended or is there a new contest??

  • admin said:

    J,

    The rules have always stated that the contest goes through June 15th. It was my error in the post that I said “May 31st.” I am very sorry. Honest mistake.

    The winner will be notified on or about June 22nd.

    Thanks,
    Steve
