Boutique Acoustic Projection Meets Hand-Crafted Artistry

The Guitar Sanctuary is proud to present the Eastman MD615 F-Style Mandolin, finished in a stunning, hand-applied Goldburst lacquer. Built with the same commitment to traditional luthiery that defines Eastman's legendary archtop guitars, the MD615 delivers robust acoustic volume, rich chop, and crystalline high-end clarity—making it an exceptional choice for bluegrass, folk, Americana, and stage performance.

Constructed entirely from solid tonewoods, the MD615 features a hand-carved solid Spruce top paired with hand-carved solid Maple back and sides. The iconic F-style body scroll and traditional F-holes are meticulously detailed, offering timeless vintage aesthetic appeal. Outfitted with a factory-installed K&K Duotone pickup system, this mandolin seamlessly bridges the gap between acoustic purity and effortless stage amplification without compromising its natural acoustic voice.
