Eastman MD304 Mandolin - Classic

The Eastman MD304 Mandolin Delivers Design Simplicity without Sacrificing Quality and Tone

Eastman's handcrafted mandolins pay tribute to traditional build methods and body styles while delivering a balanced and refined tone. A-style or teardrop mandolins offer the benefit of a fine mandolin without the extra cost of the F-style. Its tonal brightness makes it a popular choice in the classical, folk, and Celtic genres. Oval-hole mandolins possess throaty and vocal tonal characteristics that are wonderfully compatible with mandolin orchestras, and Celtic/folk music. These mandolins also produce a perceived ambient reverb, due to the oval-hole opening lying directly below the courses of strings.
