We are so excited to have this Clark F5 Mandolin in the store. This mando was handmade in Boise, Idaho by luthier Austin Clark, and the quality of his craftsmanship is easy to see, and even easier to hear. It sounds incredible. The tone is very balanced and is equally at home with individual note fiddle tune playing, or a solid rhythm chop.
Clark has gained a reputation as the builder of very fine mandolins and archtop guitars for good reason. He only uses the most select materials, as is apparent when inspecting and playing this beautiful F5. The back, sides and neck are broad flamed Maple, the top is select Red Spruce, and the fingerboard is Ebony. The varnish finish adds depth and color to the sunburst stain. The satin engraved tailpiece gives a subtle compliment to the excellent fit and finish throughout. Hardshell case included with this Clark F5 Mandolin.
