BAY STATE

Guitars, Mandolins, Banjos, Zithers and Flutes

Unequalled in Tone, Workmanship and Price

ON THE PACIFIC COAST SOME - GREAT CONCERTS AT WHICH THEY WILL BE PLAYED.

We are in receipt of some very attractive printed matter issued by Kohler & Chase announcing two concerts to be given in San Francisco by Valentine Abt the great mandolinist. Abt plays the Washburn mandolin exclusively, and produces musical effects upon his chosen instrument far surpassing even the finest mandolin solos heard heretofore. An enormous success is predicted for these Abt concerts. One hundred local players are to assist. The popularity of the Washburn guitars, mandolins and banjos upon the Pacific Slope is very great. The beautiful Cremona tone of the new model Washburn mandolin has been nowhere more thoroughly appreciated than in Californian music circles.
