McBrides Octave Mandolin – Vintage Sunburst

McBrides Octave Mandolin Vintage Sunburst

A contemporary interpretation of the Classic two-point Octave Mandolins which dominated the “Golden Age” of Mandolin at the turn of the 20th Century .

Featuring a carved solid spruce top and a carved solid maple back the ASTP has a big resonant sound for rhythm playing and a fast punchy attack for lead playing. Uniquely in this price range the ASTP features a radiused (Curved) Rosewood fingerboard for blisteringly fast solos and smooth precise chord changes all across the fingerboard.

A firm favourite with the current crop of Americana, Bluegrass and Nu Folk bands, the Octave Mandolin is a hugely versatile instrument that lends depth and substance to any musical setting.

The innovative design of the ASTP range gives you a visually and sonically unique instrument that will delivery time and time again whatever your genre of music.
