Eastman MD315 F-Style Hand-Carved Mandolin #0905

The Eastman MD315 is a player’s F-style mandolin that proves you don’t need to spend a fortune to get professional-level tone and craftsmanship. Hand-carved from solid tonewoods, this instrument delivers the kind of projection, clarity, and chop that bluegrass players love. The solid spruce top adds brightness and definition, while the maple back and sides contribute to a punchy, focused response that cuts beautifully through a mix. Whether you’re driving rhythm in a jam or taking a lead break, this mandolin offers a voice that’s lively and well-balanced across the strings. Its satin finish gives it a smooth, understated look and a fast feel in the hands, while the adjustable ebony bridge and cast aluminum tailpiece ensure reliable tuning and sustain. The neck’s comfortable carve paired with the 12" radius ebony fingerboard makes it easy to play, even through long sessions. Details like ivoroid binding, pearl dot inlays, and Proline tuners show Eastman’s attention to fit and finish that far exceeds expectations at this price point. Perfect for advancing players or seasoned musicians looking for a reliable gigging mandolin, the Eastman MD315 is a favorite for its warm tone, vintage feel, and hand-carved construction. It comes ready to play with D’Addario XT Phosphor Bronze strings and includes a padded gig bag for protection on the go.
