Description
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.
