Stage Ready Condition Note: This brand-new instrument is in mint condition other than some slight cloudiness in the finish on the lower bout.
The Eastman MD815 F-Style Mandolin is a beautifully crafted instrument designed for players seeking exceptional tone, performance, and style. Built with a solid Adirondack spruce top and solid flamed maple back and sides, this mandolin offers rich, resonant sound with outstanding clarity and projection, making it ideal for bluegrass pickers and versatile musicians alike.
The classic F-style body with F-holes ensures traditional aesthetics and excellent tonal balance, while the maple neck and ebony fingerboard, featuring a comfortable 12” radius and pearl dot inlays, provide smooth playability across all 23 Jescar frets. Elegant ivoroid binding on the top, back, fingerboard, and headstock enhances its sophisticated look, further complemented by a pearl flower pot logo on the headstock. Premium features like a compensated ebony bridge, nickel Gotoh MF40R tuners, and an Eastman cast aluminum tailpiece ensure superior tone transfer and stable tuning.
Finished with a high-gloss coating for durability and visual appeal, and protected in a sturdy hardshell case, the MD815 combines timeless craftsmanship with modern functionality, making it a perfect choice for players who demand excellence in both sound and style.
