      Breedlove American Series FF Mandolin (105926935)
Availability:  


A classic high lonesome sound, re-envisioned.

With a design that harkens back to the golden era of mandolin building, the American Series FF mandolin combines the best traditional construction elements with Breedlove's cutting edge aesthetics and attention to detail.

The F-style mandolin features a Florentine body design, with f-holes in the body. The result is a mandolin with a deeper, throatier voice, with lots of bark and plenty of bass. The solid Sitka spruce top and flamed maple back and sides complement these features, and add robust projection, so this F-style mandolin can be heard no matter what arrangement you find yourself in. Whether practicing at home, jamming with your buddies, or shredding some Bill Monroe licks at center stage, this 8-string sounds killer. The Breedlove mandolin 13.94" scale, 1-3/16" nut width, and 16" radius provides comfort and accessibility when running up and down the mandolin's 23 frets. The bolt-on maple neck and ebony bridge and fretboard provide amazing clarity and sustain, while also making the mandolin incredibly sturdy.

Dressed in a smooth satin finish, and featuring Gotoh MF40R/MB tuners, and chrome hardware, this mandolin is truly a bluegrass looker, and will impress everybody within range of its killer tone and breathtaking looks. Includes Breedlove deluxe hardshell mandolin case.

With our Guaranteed Lowest Price, you can be assured of complete satisfaction and the lowest available price, or your money back!

  • Breedlove The American Series FF

    As reviewed by John on 5/24/2011

    I purchased this instrument after researching the web. I have a A5-L Gibson which is a very fine mandolin in its own right.I bought this to start out as a beginner. The Gibson name and legacy were big factors.And the overall workmanship was great. However my physical type and playing style dictated a different type of instrument. I have large hands and found the Gibson neck and frets too difficult to play cleanly and without considerable effort. The Breedlove arrived in good fashion with a nice case and little else in the way of instruction or accessories. The stark natural finish reminded me of a almost completed wood shop project. But the overall fit was excellent. The radius fretboard and somewhat taller frets were an excellent aid to playing clean. In addition the string spacing due to the wider nut was a blessing. The neck is more of a "c" type with more mass than the Gibson and easier to negotiate than the Gibson. the action was moderately high, but very playable. The sound is subjective, but it's not a bluegrass tone per se in my opinion. However, it is loud with the right pick and sustains well. The contemporary style may put off traditionalists, but if you want a American made mandolin that's easier than most traditional mandolins to play, go for it. You won't be disappointed.
