Developed in conjunction with the great Mike Marshall, the Northfield Artist mandolins are produced in limited numbers and feature unique bracing patterns to maximize the sonic potential of each given set of wood. This particular instrument is a 2-bar model, voiced for a more traditional Bluegrass sound, with a very strong fundamental, cutting high end power and a more focused projection. It's topped with an Italian (high-altitude, think "Adirondack") spruce top, for the ultimate in refined projection. It also features a lovely maple back and exceptionally flamed maple neck.
