About This Mandolin

Eastman MD805 Electric Mandolin

The Eastman MD805 electric mandolin is an A-Style, F-Hole model featuring a Solid Adirondack Spruce Top and Solid Maple back and sides. Known for having more treble attack and percussive “chop” than oval hole instruments, the Eastman MD805 F-hole mandolin is the first choice in ensemble settings where volume competition can be an issue.
