Description
The Washburn M116SW A-style mandolin features a
vintage look and its expert craftsmanship upholds the standards to which
all Washburn instruments are made. The mandolin is built on the popular
A-style platform-a classic teardrop acoustic folk design belting out
full, warm tone.
It starts with a carved solid spruce top for
warm, balanced tone right out of the box. The back and sides are
bookmatched flamed maple, offering tremendous beauty not regularly seen
in mandolins in this price range. The ebony fingerboard over the maple
neck offers a warm sustain, while the A-style design keeps your attack
punchy and quick-ideal for chopping away in barn-burnin' bluegrass
settings.
A subtle rope purfling outlines the teardrop body,
while the mandolin's distressed Allan style tailpiece and distressed
stained matte finish continues the vintage look. Four inline open-gear
distressed tuning machines offer precise tuning in an aged appearance.
The
Washburn M116SW A-style mandolin comes out of the box looking and
feeling like a family heirloom. The distressed wood and natural finish
maintains a timeless folk look and sound. Includes case.
