The Gretsch G9310 New Yorker Supreme is an A-style mandolin built in the tradition of the classic Gretsch mandos from the 1950s. Featuring mahogany top, back, sides and neck, and a rosewood fingerboard and bridge, the G9310 sports a wonderfully warm and mellow sound compared to more common spruce-topped instruments. Great for the intermediate player looking to upgrade their first instrument, or guitarists looking to add a mandolin to their arsenal for a different texture in their arrangements and recordings, the G9310 New Yorker Supreme is a serious contender that's still wholly affordable.
