This mandolin sounds fantastic with plenty of volume and chop to cut through the mix. It's fun to play and feels solid thanks to its all solid wood construction. This mandolin has been played extensively and has quite a bit of pick wear on the top (see photos). There are also nicks here and there from use, but the mandolin is in pristine playing condition. This is an upper intermediate level mandolin at a really good price.
From the manufacturer: Washburn Americana Series all-solid F-Style Mandolin with solid carved European spruce top, and carved solid Mahogany back and sides, 1-1/4″ bone nut, distressed satin finish. Washburn has been building mandolins since the late 1800s. Whether you’re a bluegrass, Celtic or rock player, see how the addition of a mandolin can broaden your sonic pallet and add a new dimension to your music. For traditionalists, you’ll find all the tone & projection you’d expect from our world class instruments. The Florentine style body design on the M108SW is deeper than traditional instruments for more volume and projection and it has a wider nut, with wider string spacing to accommodate bigger fingers.
