Gibson

Same brilliant luthiery and design as the F-5L with fewer frills for less cash.

Even with its simple appointments, the Gibson F-5G Mandolin is one gorgeous instrument. The bound scroll work meets Gibson's toughest standards, the same standards used on the F-5L with top-grade materials and impeccable craftsmanship. Carved spruce top and solid maple back and sides, extended ebony fretboard, and tuned parallel tone bar produce unsurpassed tone.

Features

  • Carved solid spruce top
  • Carved solid maple back and sides
  • Extended ebony fretboard
  • Tuned parallel tone bar
  • Lacquer finish
  • Flowerpot headstock inlay
  • Triple top binding
  • Nickel-plated hardware

Order now and enjoy the apex of Gibson artistry.

Just in the mood for a little mando?

Overall:
This mandolin is the same as the Fern, for around 3 grand less.  It doesn't have all the fancy visual extras the Fern has, but if you want a killer sounding mando, this really is hard to beat.  I have played several high-end mandos, including the various Gibby models, and keep coming back the F5-G.  Of course, I would not recommend getting a new one.  There are great deals to be found all over the net.  Good luck!
