Surprisingly agile player with the acoustic fullness and focus only a 17" archtop can provide.

Why We Love This

"Nimble" is not often a word we use to describe a mandocello, but this Dave Harvey-signed K-5C has us rethinking a lot of assumptions. This is not your grandparents' mandolin orchestra 'cello. It has all the low-end whomp you want , but does so with a beautiful balance, and—dare we say—ease that makes it a blast to play. The label indicates this is #1, and may, indeed, be the only extant example. The instrument comes to us in excellent overall condition, with a well-worn original hard case.

Pre-Owned Instruments | Have Questions?
We take great care in accepting only the highest quality pre-owned instruments for resale in our shop, then carefully photograph and describe each instrument to ensure what you see on our site is exactly what you'll receive. Many of these instruments carry subtle signs of handling that can escape even the most discerning eye, so if you have questions about the condition of this instrument, we invite you to call us for an in-hand description. We're always happy to help!
