Beautiful A-style mandolin.
The manufacturing process at Eastman doesn't differ much from the way mandolins were made in the mandolin's glory days in the early 20th century. They are handmade using the finest select tonewoods, in this case a solid carved spruce top and solid maple back, sides and top. Apportioning includes a traditional-style ebony bridge and an ebony fingerboard. It is triple-bound on the top, and features a single piece cast tailpiece. The scroll is charming and beautifully rendered.
Features
- Individually hand-crafted using time-honored methods
- Made of pemium hand-carved solid tonewoods
- Solid spruce top, solid maple back & sides
- Ebony fingerboard & adjustable ebony bridge
- A-style body with F-holes

Order now and get an A-style into your hands that you will love for a lifetime.
