Mint-Brand New Condition Northfield Archtop Octave Mandolin w/Italian red spruce and flat back and sides made from solid figured Curly Maple. I never really cared for the pickguard that Northfield put on these instruments, so I sent the pickguard down to the great Jonathan McClanahan to see if he could do something custom for it, and he reshaped it and put a wonderful binding on it making this a much more attractive option in my humble opinion. These are $5495 new, Asking $4795, but will listen to reasonable offers... again, this is in mint-brand new condition. There's not a scratch, dent, ding, or any fretwear on it.
