This maple-bodied octave has a deep, crisp tone that's great for vocal accompaniment and provides some added punch for melody playing.
Why We Love This
Northfield Mandolins has seriously upped the ante with their new carved-top, archtop guitar-style octave mandolin. These instruments are uniquely sized, with the aim of taking away some of the awkwardness inherent in the typical octave mandolin scale-length and body size. This maple-bodied octave has a deep, crisp tone that's great for vocal accompaniment and provides some added punch for melody playing. Priced with hard case from Northfield.Note: Video shows a previously sold example.
Condition: Brand New. Fully inspected and set up by TME staff before it ships or leaves the showroom.
