The Eastman MD814 is a finely crafted F-style mandolin featuring a solid Adirondack spruce top paired with flamed maple back and sides. Its oval sound hole provides a unique tonal character that blends warmth and projection, making it well suited for both studio and stage use. The classic finish enhances the natural beauty of the wood, while the bone nut, measuring 1 3/32 inches, contributes to optimal string vibration and tuning stability.
This mandolin offers a traditional F-style design with detailed craftsmanship and premium materials aimed at delivering a balanced sound with clear articulation and dynamic response. Players will appreciate the combination of tonewoods that produce a rich, resonant voice with a bright edge, ideal for bluegrass, folk, and other acoustic styles.
