The NFS-F5 has the looks of a classic bluegrass mandolin, with a powerful chop and articulation to match.

Just in, an excellent sounding, Engelmann spruce-topped Northfield NFS-F5E! Simply stated, there is no other F-style mandolin in this price point that offers the kind of tone and craftsmanship present in the NFS-F5. This recent build has a lovely, woody voice with plenty of punch to cut through an ensemble, and offers an excellent opportunity to move into the world of professional-caliber mandolins for player's of all levels. Playability is excellent after a fresh setup in our shop, with little to no fret-wear apparent. Priced with original "Airloom" hardshell case. On consignment, shipping calculated at checkout.

Condition
A few marks on the headstock including one scratch on the bass side (likely from pegwinder); a few minor dings throughout - notably on the lower point
all to be expected from a satin-finished instrument that has been played!
