This is a pre-order. Gold Tone has the Grandmaster Super Cremona on order rather than in stock, so ordering now reserves one from the incoming run. We do not have a ship date from Gold Tone yet. Message us before you commit and we will tell you where the run stands. Your payment is fully refundable at any time before your mandolin ships, for any reason and with no restocking fee.

The Super Cremona is the top of Gold Tone's Grandmaster line. The top is high-RRV old-growth Swiss or Italian spruce, hand-scraped in the tradition of violin making, with a recurve profile that lets the soundboard move more freely. Back and sides are highly figured 5A North American maple, a grade above the Elite, under a warm antique Cremona finish in shellac and varnish.
