The A-Solid sacrifices nothing in construction, not even on this most affordable mandolin. The A-Solid is named after its solid wood construction. You won't find cheap laminates on the A-solid - even the top is solid spruce! Solid wood is not only more durable than laminate, it's also much better for the musical instrument's overall tone. Discovering how much fun playing a mandolin can be starts here!

Michael Kelly is proud to offer the widest variety of mandolins available. Since they own their own factory, every Michael Kelly mandolin is built with care to produce the best tone possible. All Michael Kelly mandolins, from the least expensive to the most, feature solid wood construction. With additional features like Grover tuners, radiused fretboards, scooped fretboard extensions and dovetail neck joints, Michael Kelly mandolins are truly "Built on Sound".
