Larger Frets, Remarkable Tonewoods, Mind-blowing Resonance

This austere, teardrop-shaped A-style model is a fresh take on one of Gibson’s most popular mandolin lines, offering a simple yet elegant look, but with several performance-enhancing elements that players of this new line will certainly come to appreciate.

For example, F-holes remain unbound, and there’s no neck or headstock binding. There are also no position markers on the fretboard (side dots only), and no inlay on the peghead, just the timeless Gibson logo decal. On the design side, each A-style mandolin features a carved solid spruce top trimmed with simple single-ply binding to contrast its Sheraton

Brown satin lacquer finish.

The back and sides are constructed from figured maple, and the figured maple necks are carved and hand shaped to the popular “rounded V” profile. Additionally, a 1 3/16" width at the nut provides enhanced comfort and finger room across the radiused ebony fingerboard. Thirteen of the instrument’s 20 frets are clear of the body, and the frets themselves are a little bigger than those typically found on vintage mandolins – a modification that improves fingering for many players and playing styles. Other advanced constructional features include Gibson’s time-tested tone bar bracing, a radiused dovetail neck joint, a genuine bone nut, an adjustable ebony bridge and nickel Grover tuners

Every instrument will come in a snug pouch-plentiful padded travel bag, making it ready for the road and easy to haul from site to site. Comes with Travel Padded Gig Bag.
