The A5 Special is an exciting development from our friends at Northfield Mandolins! This one features the wider 1 3/16" nut for a touch more fingerboard real estate.
Incorporating a master-grade Italian spruce top and hand-applied spirit varnish finish, this mandolin will stand its ground against any A model on the market -- and at a nice price to boot! Plenty of power, without sacrificing warmth or openness. Made in Northfield's Qingdao workshop on a limited basis ~ reach out to us today if you'd like an in-hand description! Priced with hard case.
Condition: Brand New. Fully inspected and set up by TME staff before it ships or leaves the showroom.
