Handcrafted in the mountains of Eastern Kentucky in Harlan, KY, by former coal miner and talented luthier Jerry Haynes, this gorgeous F-style mandolin is a special instrument with a unique history and an outstanding voice. This is number 32, made in 2008.

🌲 A PIECE OF HISTORY IN THE WOOD

The owner, who spent his career building highways across America, came across an old telegraph stump made of Engelmann spruce while in Dayton, Ohio. He brought that historic wood back to Kentucky, where Jerry Haynes incorporated it into several mandolins, including this beauty. It’s a remarkable story that makes this instrument all the more special.

✨ BEAUTIFUL LOOKS. INCREDIBLE SOUND.

• Gorgeous, wavy curly maple back

• Attractive tea-burst finish

• Flat fingerboard

• New strings and new frets

• Outstanding tone that stands out in a jam

• Amazing chop and projection

• Easy to play all the way up and down the neck

This mandolin has the kind of powerful, cutting voice players look for in a serious bluegrass instrument. Its tone and performance are comparable to what players appreciate in vintage Gibson and Red Diamond mandolins.

Built with care in the heart of the Appalachian Mountains, this is a beautiful, playable instrument with a story unlike any other.

Come for the looks, stay for the sound. This is one beautiful mandolin, and you won’t be disappointed!
