Product information

Just in, an Engelmann spruce-topped Northfield NFS-F5E with a wider, 1 3/16" nut width!

Simply stated, there is no other F-style mandolin in this price point that offers the kind of tone and craftsmanship present in the NFS-F5. This mandolin has a lovely, warm & woody voice -- with plenty of punch to cut through an ensemble; and it offers an excellent opportunity to move into the world of professional-caliber mandolins for players of all levels.

Built with a carved Engelmann Spruce top for added roundness of tone, and featuring a wider, 1 3/16" nut width for a roomier playing experience under the left hand. Priced with Northfield's "Airloom" hard case.
