That spruce-over-maple combination is the same foundation found on decades of bluegrass mandolins, delivering the crisp, articulate attack the style demands.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaple back and sides push a bright, cutting midrange through the f-holes, so the MD505-CS holds its own on the chop against a full bluegrass band, and single notes stay defined even at speed. A 12-inch radius ebony fingerboard and 23 frets of Jescar wire keep fast runs comfortable, while the adjustable compensated ebony bridge and bone nut keep intonation locked in across the fretboard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIvoroid binding and pearl dot inlays give the MD505-CS a clean, traditional look that matches its classic sunburst finish, and nickel hardware with Pingwell tuners rounds out a dependable build. It ships in a hard shell case. For a player who wants a straightforward, great-sounding A-style mandolin with a vintage look and no frills, the MD505-CS covers the essentials well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy Choose The Acoustic Shoppe?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhen you choose to purchase from us, you're not just making a transaction; you're investing in an exceptional experience.
