The Martin Vintage A Style Mandolin represents an archetype of craftsmanship in the golden era of folk instruments. Full, round, and robust, the A-style body allows you to project while retaining a sedate distinction in every note. Constructed with a flatback design as opposed to the traditional bowl for a more nuanced character and classic appointments like an oval soundhole and rosewood sides/back, this is a crown jewel in any patron's collection.
