Built on the basis of an f-style body shape with a solid spruce top and flame maple backs and sides, gold hardware appointments, and gold/pearloid tuning pegs, the Ibanez M522SDVS F-Style Mandolin is designed to catch as many eyes as ears. Topped off with a high-gloss polyurethane finish, this is a beautiful piece to have around the house or mic up for playing on stage.
