Description Technical Specs
 
In 1922, mandolin designs began to change, as did the musical tastes of the time. The greatest Acoustic Engineer of the day began to develop designs that incorporated F-shaped sound holes instead of the Oval-hole designs that ultimately tightened-up the airy, woody nature of the traditional A-shape and accentuated the treble frequencies, often lacking in previous Oval-hole designs. All combined, these instruments offered the musician better balance and greater volume to meet the ever-changing musical styles to come.

Available in three traditional finish options—vintage amber, warm brown, and a beautiful three-tone sunburst—the Kentucky KM-250 Artist A-model Mandolin Series offers professional quality instruments that are still affordably priced. All materials are hand-carved, with the tops and backs meticulously arched and graduated to achieve the correct balance of strength and lightweight rigidity for optimal tone.
