All Mandolin Family

Gold Tone's unique mando-guitars have expanded the sound pallets of thousands of players, and this latest addition to the range offers a new look. The traditional A-style body features a spruce top and maple back and sides with a rich tobacco sunburst satin finish. The maple neck carries an African blackwood fingerboard, and the adjustable walnut bridge and two-way truss rod make for easy setup and maintenance. All this, plus a bag AND our patented Zero Glide nut!

The Barnes & Mullin Salvino mandolin is a classic, F-style scroll top mandolin named after a recently uncovered 'Salvino' model from the turn of the 20th century.

Featuring a dark stained solid mahogany top and corresponding dark stained solid maple back and sides, the Salvino mandolin delivers a rich and warm tone with focus and clarity.

Complete with an ovangkol neck and fingerboard, nickel hardware and adjustable ebony bridge, the Salvino is the perfect model for beginners looking to discover the delights of the mandolin for the first time as well as established players wanting to add a great sounding F-style mandolin to their collection.

Commonly played by professional mandolin players, F-style mandolins feature an upper body scroll and scrolled headstock – making them aesthetically distinctive from A-style mandolins. Their more elaborate body and headstock design naturally uses more tonewood materials and requires a greater level of craftmanship.

There is little discernible difference in the sound produced compared to A-style mandolins. However, F-style mandolins are ever so slightly more resonant due to their larger body chamber and tonewood area are historically favoured for bluegrass music, as they are considered to have more 'cut-through' in a ensemble situation.

The Northfield 'Model M' A-Style Mandolin features an Engleman spruce top and a highly flamed maple back and sides. A simple design whilst still exuding real build quality and tone.

Choose between 2 finishes, dark leatherburst (full sunburst) or amber top/brown sides, back and neck.

Also choose from a standard nut width of 1 1/8" or a wide nut of 1/3/16"

Supplied with Northfields grey Airloom recurve case.

Northfield Wavelength Short Scale Octave Mandola. For the mandolin player who wants that octave mandola tone without the stretch. Traditionally octaves usually have a scale length of around 21-22", the Northfield Wavelength is 19". This means the gauges are slightly heavier than normal to get the tension at that shorter scale length.

A truly unique instrument!

Choose from 2 colours -  Dark leatherburst or Ox amber.

Supplied with Airloom gig bag.

Northfield Quickstep Mandola features an all solid construction including special Adirondack spruce and figured maple back and sides. A complex and resonant sound, mid-range that kicks and a top-end that sparkles like it has its own reverb unit. Also features a comfortable radiused fingerboard with larger frets and elevated fingerboard with a slightly longer scale than the relics. All this with perfect intonation.

Choose between 2 colour options of Ox Amber or Dark leatherburst

Supplied in a quality Airloom padded gig bag.
