Local favorite! A perfect balance of open warmth and nicely defined, articulate note clarity, this is the modern mandolinist's oval-hole.

Why We Love This

As oval-hole mandolins go, Girouard's Ensemble A model strikes us possessing an ideal blend of sustain, low-mid warmth and note-to-note separation. Full and rich throughout, and clear and chimey where you want it, this is a wonderful instrument for Celtic, old time, or more broadly speaking, all manner of global folk and popular genres.

The build quality is exceptional. Girouard mandolins exhibit a level of craftsmanship we're proud to display alongside the most sought-after instruments in the world.
