Eastman Mandolins - MD505 CS

MPN: MD505 CS

This Eastman MD505 CS Mandolin is a beautiful instrument and a fantastic value. This is a fully hand carved mando, based on classic models from the '20s. Gorgeous burst finish (just one of Eastman's fortes) on an aged Spruce top. Beautiful Maple back and sides on this with an Ebony fretboard on the Maple neck. A really nice A style.

"I am always amazed at the quality found in the Eastman line. If you are considering picking up a mandolin, you would be hard pressed to find a better deal than the MD505. You get nice solid woods, nice hardware including a cast tailpiece and Schaller tuning machines. The lacquer finish is polished to a nice high gloss. This comes with a hybrid style hard case too. The 5 series Eastman mandolins are, in my opinion, the perfect balance of nice high end features and value." - Tim N.

"Eastman is a company that constantly impresses me. This mandolin is a perfect example of what they're all about! Beautiful tonewoods, comfortably smooth fingerboard and fret edges, gorgeous tones perfect for folk or bluegrass. Plus, their new headstock design for the A-style is super classy. Similar to a haircut headstock...just without the part! Having an all solid-wood construction plays a huge part in the full, yet defined tone this mandolin produces. This Eastman MD505 CS Mandolin is a serious player at very nice price." - Brian S., MSM Gearhead
