Why We Love This
The Northfield A5 Special is arguably the mandolinosphere's best value in an A-style mandolin. Why? All the features of Northfield's high end F-style models are present here; but the absence of that oft-coveted scroll keeps the price point--comparably speaking--in check. The A5 Special boasts a premium Italian Spruce top, and gorgeously figured Maple body, under Spirit Varnish finish ~ all of this alongside a minimal appointment package. Everything you need to sound like a pro, nothing you don't. This particular mandolin dazzles a little bit anyway, with sumptuous Amber finish, and dark tortoise binding.Priced with Northfield's Airloom recurve case.
