Eastman MDO305 A-Style Octave Mandolin 2022 Classic

lt;p><strong>The Eastman MDO305 mandola offers classic “A” style design and construction,</strong>&nbsp;with a handcarved solid spruce top, carved solid maple back and sides for traditional looks with ultimate projection and tonal definition. The lower octave tuning (GDAE), mellow tone and larger scale make this an easy instrument to listen to and play—great for players with larger hands/fingers.<br><br><strong>The classic finish is Eastman’s thin, satin nitro lacquer&nbsp;with multi-ply ivoroid binding on the top and back.</strong> A maple neck with ebony fingerboard, and adjustable ebony bridge, add distinctive appearance and playing ease.<br><br><strong>We’re consistently impressed with Eastman’s attention to fit and finish on their mandolins,</strong>&nbsp;as well as their excellent tone. They don’t claim to be collectibles from America’s golden instrument-manufacturing era, but they offer great sound and looks at a reasonable price. We like that. A padded gig bag is included.<br><br><strong>Features</strong><br><br><strong>Body Style&nbsp;</strong> &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; A-Style<br><strong>Top</strong>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Solid Spruce w/ S-holes<br><strong>Back/Sides&nbsp; &nbsp;</strong> &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Solid Maple<br><strong>Finish</strong>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Classic satin nitrocellulose lacquer<br><strong>Bracings</strong>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Parallel<br><strong>Neck</strong>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Maple<br><strong>Fretboard</strong>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Ebony w/ pearl dot markers, 23 frets<br><strong>Radius</strong>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;12"<br><strong>Nut</strong>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;1 3/8” Bone<br><strong>Scale Length</strong>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;21”<br><strong>Binding</strong>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Ivoroid on body top<br><strong>Headcap Veneer</strong>&nbsp; &nbsp;Maple<br><strong>Hardware</strong>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Nickel<br><strong>Tailpiece</strong>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Stamped chrome brass<br><strong>Bridge</strong>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Fitted Adjustable Ebony<br><strong>Tuners</strong>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Open-style geared<br>Tuning&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; GDAE<br><strong>Dimensions</strong>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 15 5/8” x 12” x 1 27/32”<br><strong>Gig Bag&nbsp; &nbsp;</strong> &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Eastman padded gig bag Included</p>

Eastman MDO305 A-Style Octave Mandolin - Classic

Known for having more treble attack and percussive chop than oval hole instruments, F-hole mandolins are the first choice in ensemble settings where volume competition can be an issue. Oval-hole mandolins possess throaty and vocal tonal characteristics that are wonderfully compatible with mandolin orchestras, and Celtic/folk music.
