The Loar LM-520-VS Mandolin with Case, Hand Carved, F-Style, All Solid

The new hand carved LM-520 F-model mandolin is our response to players�� requests for a value priced mandolin with more stripped down appointments yet a similar sound to our best-selling Loar LM-600 and LM-400 mandolins. The new 520 is carefully assembled in the same hand-carved workshop that gave birth to the LM-400 and 700, and have similar hand-carved, fully graduated spruce tops. The solid maple back of each instrument is also hand carved, and the solid maple sides complete the package. The maple neck has a comfortable rounded 'V' profile finished with a rosewood fretboard. The compensated adjustable ebony bridge and high quality vintage style grover tuning machines insure that these mandolins have great intonation and stay in tune no matter how hard they are played.
