Our friends at Northfield Mandolin never fail to delight, and this Artist Series F5 with an Engelmann spruce top speaks volumes about why Northfield is such an influential force in the mandolin world. 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. Northfield has voiced the five-bar version for a complex series of harmonics, maximum low-end responsiveness and omnidirectional projection. An Engelmann spruce top makes for a warm, full-bodied and responsive instrument. Priced with Airloom Tura "Deluxe" carbon fiber case.
