Carved and assembled in The Loar Hand Carved Design Workshop, the LM-700E-VS is a tribute to classic design techniques. This acoustic-electric Supreme F-style mandolin boasts a hand-carved spruce top, along with an eye-grabbing flamed maple back and sides. The LM-700E-VS's 1-piece flamed maple neck and bound ebony fingerboard ensure easy playability. You also get an ebony bridge, bone nut, and vintage-style Gotoh tuners for outstanding tone, sustain, and intonation. What's more, Fishman electronics supply you with world-class amplified sound. The Loar's head-turning LM-700E-VS Supreme F-style mandolin includes a pearl and abalone Loar Fleur headstock inlay, ivoroid binding and tuning buttons, and an extra-thin poly finish.

The LM-700E-VS Supreme F-style mandolin features a braceless top, which was hand-carved and hand-graduated from top-grade solid spruce. This mandolin's hand-carved AAA flamed maple back and sides not only supply you with an eye-catching look, but they also add the perfect amount of snap and projection to the spruce top's direct, fundamental-heavy sonic character. The LM-700E-VS includes an extra-thin hand-rubbed polyurethane finish, which lends a clean warmth to this acoustic-electric mandolin's core tone. Its 1-piece flamed maple neck is a joy to wrap your hand around, while its bound ebony fingerboard offers unparalleled fleet-fingered playability. You'll also appreciate the incredible sustain and sharp attack provided by the LM-700E-VS's bone nut and adjustable ebony bridge. To top it off, you get vintage-style Gotoh tuners for rock-solid tuning stability.

When it comes time to hit the stage, the LM-700E-VS Supreme F-style mandolin's Fishman M-300 Nashville Series pickup really delivers the goods. This pickup consists of a passive piezo-ceramic element embedded in the bottom of this acoustic-electric mandolin's bridge. When you plug in, you'll experience a hyper-accurate reproduction of the LM-700E-VS's acoustic sound that remains consistent from performance to performance.
