Product Overview
The Washburn M1SDLB Americana A-Style Mandolin offers a modern look and quality craftsmanship that has made Washburn a household name. The mandolin is built on the popular A-style platform. A classic acoustic folk design producing deep, powerful attack. It starts with a solid spruce top for warm, balanced tone. The sides and arched back are maple, offering beauty and performance.
The bound fingerboard promotes warm sustain, while the A-style design and the oval soundhole produces and full tone and projection-ideal for soloing and rhythm in barn-burnin' bluegrass or folk settings. A striking white binding outlines the teardrop body and gold tuning machines offer precise tuning in a modern appearance. This Washburn A-style mandolin comes out of the box ready to jam. Thanks to careful handmade craftsmanship, the Washburn M1SDLB 8-string bluegrass standard will compliment any string band outfit, from parking lot jams to center stage.
