Suzuki M-20 Mandolin with original case – Made in Japan – vintage condition For sale is a classic Suzuki M-20 bowl-back mandolin from Japan, including the original hard shell case with velvet lining.
The instrument was manufactured by the renowned Suzuki Violin Co. Ltd. in Nagoya – probably in the 1970s or 1980s.

A charming instrument for collectors or active musicians seeking a clear, traditional mandolin sound.
