Recent National RM-1 Mandolin

Show that banjo player in your Bluegrass combo who's the boss with this RM-1 Mandolin from the National Resophonic Company. It's got plenty of tone and volume and a surprising warmth, as well as the attention to finish detail we've come to expect from our friends at National. The figured maple top, Art-Deco cast tailpiece, ivoroid neck binding, and great looking aged brass hardware really make this mandolin stand out in the looks department as well. A well balanced instrument, the 9.5" hand spun resonator will allow for oodles of projection at your next jam session. This instrument is in excellent condition and nicely set-up. The hotplate pickup system is a great solution for high-volume playing, and the instrument comes with a neotech strap, as pictured.

Walnut back and rims, figured maple top, maple biscuit, ebony fingerboard, 1-1/4" bone nut, 14" scale and Gotoh open gear tuners.
