Northfield Mandolins has seriously upped the ante with their carved-top, archtop guitar-style octave mandolin. These instruments are uniquely sized, with the aim of taking away some of the awkwardness inherent in the typical octave mandolin scale-length and body size. This maple-bodied octave has a deep, clear tone with satisfying sustain. It's a great choice for vocal accompaniment and provides some added punch for melody playing.
This is a great sounding, early example of this model, including an earlier pickguard design. It has been played, and sports normal signs of wear. Priced with its original hard case.
