A cut above the rest - the Eastman MD505 A-Style mandolin
Eastman handcrafted mandolins pay tribute to traditional build methods and body styles while delivering a balanced and refined tone. A bluegrass icon, and for good reason. Featuring all solid construction, the Eastman MD505 is sure to impress even the most demanding performer.
Here at Riffs & Licks Music, we think the Eastman MD355 is a great choice for the intermediate to pro mandolin player looking for an instrument the far exceeds the quality of similarly priced instruments from many other manufacturers.
