Michael Kelly

collapse expand iconDescription

The Michael Kelly Dragonfly is a classic F-style mandolin with a flame maple body and a solid spruce top. This one features MK's antique walnut finish, lending it a warm, transparent brown hue, which combined with the throaty "chop" and ringing single note response make this instrument a welcome addition to any bluegrass jam session. All styling decisions in the Dragonfly design invoke the masterful mandolins of the early 20th century. The single-ply white neck binding, the threeply white/black body binding and the gold hardware accent the classicism of the lines with a sharp, modern definition, framing it beautifully as an instrument that will instill pride of pownership. The Dragonfly inlay is a spectacular finishing touch.
