Description

Here is a wonderful, Northfield F5 Master Model "Big Mon' with special Engelmann spruce and a wide nut, just in. The Big Mon features a slightly enlarged F5 body, which produces a very rich, powerful sound with a noticeably open character. The wider, 1 3/16" wide nut option fits the mandolin's dimensions nicely and offers  a little more real estate under the fretting hand, making for a little more forgiving playing experience. All Big Mon models feature premium grade tonewoods and a varnish finish. If you're adventurous enough to push the boundaries of tradition, but you demand the woody power we've come to expect in a serious bluegrass mandolin, the Big Mon is worth a look.

Priced with hard case.
