The octave mandolin features a domed X braced Sitka top and maple back and sides, 12-3\/4\" body, and 22-3\/4\" scale neck.  Mahogany neck with adjustable truss rod, radiussed fingerboard, compensated ebony bridge, bone nut and high-quality Gotoh tuning machines.  \r\nThe instrument is finished in a thin satin Nitrocellulose lacquer finish with natural top and dark-stained back and sides. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\r\nTuned GDAE, but an octave lower than a mandolin (thus the name), the Octave Mandolin is an easy lateral-move for most guitar or mandolin players, and offers something a little different in the mix.
