Northfield NFS-F5SE, Englemann
For more details contact us at info@folkwaymusic.com or 855-772-0424.
Northfield instruments offer serious mandolin players a beautifully built, excellent-sounding, highly detailed traditional F5 at a price-point that, while not inexpensive, is significantly less than anything comparable. Folkway Music is proud to be Northfield's newest (and only) Canadian dealer.
The F5S is a simply appointed instrument that is built to the same exacting specifications as Northfield's more expensive Artist Series models. The mandolin features figured hand-graduated hard maple back and sides and master-grade Englemann spruce top, traditional tobacco sunburst lacquer satin finish, ivoroid-bound top and unbound back. The neck features a radiused ebony fingerboard with scooped end, fiddleback maple with 1920's carve, and a very tasteful fine inlay around the headstock's perimeter. Bound ebony finger rest, cast tailpiece, Loar-style adjustable bridge, 1-1/8” bone nut, and Gotoh tuners.
Each F5S is offered with a high-quality Airloom Recurve case.
Individual instruments may vary slightly in appearance
