{"product_id":"northfield-nfs-f5awn-adirondack-wide-nut-5488","title":"Northfield NFS-F5AWN, Adirondack, Wide Nut","description":"\u003cp\u003eNorthfield 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 only Canadian dealer.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe S-Series F5 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 Adirondack red 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, and Gotoh tuners. This example is a wide-nut version with a nut width of 1-3\/16” rather than the typical 1-1\/8”. The extra 1\/16” offers noticeably more room between the string courses, making the tighter mandolin nut width easier to navigate, particularly for those musicians coming from a guitar-playing background.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach Northfield NFS-F5AWN is offered with a high-quality Airloom Recurve case.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003ci\u003e**USD Price includes Shopify fees\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"NORTHFIELD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53597008789870,"sku":"210000008444","price":5595.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0979\/3660\/5550\/files\/17660018092411NorthfieldNFF5S-1122-bf.jpg?v=1790991313","url":"https:\/\/folkwaymusic.com\/products\/northfield-nfs-f5awn-adirondack-wide-nut-5488","provider":"Folkway Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
