This top-selling instrument has a solid spruce top, the sides and back are maple, and the elevated 20-fret fingerboard is set above the top to allow more top vibration. The beautiful, high-gloss sunburst finish on the top immediately catches the eye. It’s priced easily within range of any student or player of another instrument who is ready to try the mandolin.
