If you are looking for a hand-crafted solid wood mandolin at an affordable price, look no further. The quality of Eastman’s craftsmanship is outstanding. Prepare to be amazed.
The style of sound hole plays a major role in shaping a mandolin’s overall voice and response. Instruments with F-holes are especially prized for their focused, articulate tone, delivering a crisp treble attack with excellent note definition. They also produce the signature percussive “chop” that cuts cleanly through the mix, making them the preferred choice for bluegrass players and anyone performing in louder ensemble settings where projection and clarity are essential.
A true bluegrass classic—and it’s easy to see why. F-style, or Florentine, mandolins represent the pinnacle of craftsmanship, blending striking visual elegance with purposeful design. Their signature carved scroll and intricate detailing not only set them apart aesthetically, but also add mass to the body, enhancing balance and stability when played standing. The result is an instrument that feels as good in your hands as it looks on display, making it a top choice for serious players and collectors alike.
Eastman’s mandolins are handcrafted and pay tribute to traditional build methods while delivering a balanced and refined tone. Built by an expert team of luthiers and craftspeople. Built individually for your playing experience.
