Product information

An Engelmann Spruce-topped variant of Northfield's F5 Artist model ensures warm, full-bodied tone, and a delicate level of responsiveness.

Our friends at Northfield Mandolins never fail to delight, and this Artist Series F5 with Engelmann Spruce top speaks volumes about why Northfield is such an influential force in the mandolin world. Developed in conjunction with the great Mike Marshall, the Northfield Artist mandolins are produced in limited numbers and feature unique bracing patterns to maximize the sonic potential of each given set of wood.

Northfield has voiced the five-bar version of their F5 Artist for a complex series of harmonics, maximum low-end resonance and omnidirectional projection. An Engelmann Spruce-topped variant of the model, such as this one, ensures warm, full-bodied tone, and a delicate level of responsiveness. Priced with Airloom hardshell case from Northfield.
