Eastman MD605 A-Style Mandolin
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. All Eastman mandolins feature solid wood construction, carved and assembled with pride by craftspeople in a manner like the classic instruments from the Golden Age of manufacturing.
The Eastman MD605 is an all carved A-style mandolin. Hand-built using traditional materials & “Old World” craftsmanship, it features a Solid Spruce Top, Solid Maple back & sides, Ebony fingerboard & adjustable ebony bridge.
