Tobias Music - Chicago Area’s Finest Guitars (and mandolins)
Proud Partners with Eastman Fretted Instruments for over 15 years.
Another offering from the master luthiers at Eastman Fretted Instruments. Eastman’s 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. F-style or Florentine mandolins are the epitome of fine craftsmanship and beauty. The ornate carved scroll adds mass to the instrument that helps create balance for a standing player.
Known for having more treble attack and percussive "chop" than oval hole instruments, F-hole mandolins are the first choice in ensemble settings where volume competition can be an issue.
