Purchased two weeks ago at Acoustic Music works here in Pittsburgh PA A Kentucky KM-250S. I believe this is last years model as it has the darker brown finish.If you go. to Saga's site they dropped the S and just call it the 250. and it only comes in the sunburst finish. It is a little odd that inside my mandolin only 250 it written,but with no S.
