Northfield Mandolins has seriously upped the ante with their new 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, crisp tone that's great for vocal accompaniment and provides some added punch for melody playing.
Condition: this instrument was recently traded in, and was formerly owned by a professional touring musician. It's been played, and sports mild signs of wear -- most noticeably, several top dings near the bridge. Overall, it's in good used condition; and it's a particularly good-sounding example of this model. Priced with its original hard case.
