WASHBURN M108SWK-D Americana Series Florentine F-Style Vintage Matte Mandolin

 M108SWK-D  WASHBURN 

 Americana Series Florentine F-Style Mandolin 

Washburn has been building mandolins since the late 1800s. Whether you're a bluegrass, Celtic or rock player, see how the addition of a mandolin can broaden your sonic pallet and add a new dimension to your music. For traditionalists, you'll find all the tone and projection you'd expect from their world-class instruments.

Part of their Americana Series of classic-looking instruments at accessible prices, the M108SWK-D F-Style mandolin offers an extra punch of volume and projects farther thanks to it's deeper body design and tonewood combination of solid carved European spruce top with quarter sawn Sitka spruce bracing and solid carved mahogany body. Giving a little extra warmth and pop to its overall sound is a maple neck topped with ebony. Players with bigger hands will appreciate how the M108SW'S 1-1/4" nut width offers more string spacing than your average mandolin. To give it a more traditional, handed-down appeal, Washburn gave it a vintage natural matte finish and distressed the hardware.
