Northfield NFO-AT1, Archtop Octave Mandolin, Special Italian Spruce, Mahogany - NEW - SOLD
SOLD
(NEW) An instrument hasn't dropped jaws around our shop quite like this in a while! Mandolin players and guitar players alike have found themselves transfixed by the archtop octave mando from Northfield. From the beautiful sunburst finish to the figured maple, to the perfect way that it feels in your hands and balances in your grip... this instrument is just impeccably designed, it satisfies completely. Trust us, when you play one, you'll know.
This mahogany body is the first we've had, and we're in love with the warmth of tone. It doesn't have the "cut" of the maple, but that might not be a bad thing, depending on your style or ensemble makeup... not like either is a bad choice! An inspiring sonic expansion for any mandolin player.
