Description

This customized Girouard oval hole mandolin would be a fantastic choice for a player interested in an uber-warm tone. Its Sapele back & sides and Alaskan Yellow Cedar top produce a clear, bell-like fundamental that's dry & direct. An ideal instrument for old-time music, or duo style playing in the vein of the great brother-duo acts. Overall excellent condition, with only slight signs of handling. With its original hard case. On consignment.
