Eastman MD505-CS - Classic Sunburst

The Eastman MD505 A style mandolin is the best value in an all solid wood mandolin. Not only do these sound great, they play exceptionally too. I've played the other all solid wood import mandolins, and the Eastman MD505 feels like a solid, well made instrument especially compared to the others.

This mandolin is hanging in our store. Please feel free to stop by anytime and play it! Please feel free to ask any questions!
