The Engelmann spruce / Sugar maple combination plays to some of the strengths of Girouard mandolins, accentuating their open, dynamic responsiveness and full, throaty tone. We love the Golden Brown burst to boot!

Max and Lauri Girouard have been on a nice run with Engelmann spruce of late, as this latest mandolin attents. Engelmann offers warmth without sacrificing body and dynamic range, perfect for classical to fiddle tunes, indie folk and beyond, this mandolin responds quickly and with a confident, bouyant voice—all trademarks of the Girouard sound we know and love.
