Solid Tonewoods. Real Mandolin Sound.

The Eastman MD305 is an A-style mandolin that delivers genuine acoustic performance without compromise. A solid spruce top and solid maple back and sides — tonewoods chosen for their proven track record in mandolin construction — produce a bright, focused, and articulate voice that cuts through in any ensemble setting. An adjustable compensated ebony bridge, bone nut, and Jescar fretwire bring a level of build quality rarely found at this price point.

Whether you’re a bluegrass picker, a folk player, or just getting started on mandolin, the MD305 is a serious instrument that will grow with you.
