Excellent A-style Mandolin at an Affordable Price
From its nascent beginnings in Europe in the 17th century, the mandolin has been used as an accompanying instrument in various string ensembles. By the first half of the 20th century, the mandolin emerged as a key component of the American musical landscape, thanks to Bill Monroe, “the Father of Bluegrass.” Ibanez provides beginning to intermediate mandolin players with an accessible and high-quality option: the M510. This A-style mandolin features a beautiful spruce top with sapele back and sides, an okoume neck, and a purpleheart fretboard. Many Sweetwater mandolin players declare that the spruce wood provides a clear, bright tone, while the accompanying sapele delivers a warm, balanced sound comparable to mahogany. Whether your preference is traditional folk, country, bluegrass, or classical music, the Ibanez M510 is an excellent choice for both accomplished players and those who are musically curious.
Ibanez M510 Features:
- Spruce top, sapele back and sides, and an okoume neck produce warm, bright tones
- Dark violin sunburst high-gloss finish looks excellent in any light
