Mitchell DM200E Double Cut Acoustic-Electric Mandolin - California Gold

The Mitchell DM200E double cut acoustic-electric mandolin brings a bold, modern shape to the line of traditional folk instruments, combining upper-fret access, onboard electronics and a focused acoustic voice in one stage-ready design. That double cutaway design is the model’s defining feature, giving this mandolin a level of upper-register access rarely seen in traditional acoustic mandolin designs. A hollow carved okoume body, maple neck, purpleheart fingerboard, arched top and back, F-style soundholes and California Gold vintage-style finish give the DM200E a distinctive balance of acoustic character and amplified versatility.

Double Cutaway for Expanded Upper-Fret Access

The double cutaway design makes the DM200E especially useful for players who want to move beyond first-position rhythm work. Upper-fret access feels more natural for solos, melodic fills and modern chord voicings, while the maple neck and purpleheart fingerboard provide a familiar, smooth playing feel. This makes the DM200E appealing to guitarists, multi-instrumentalists and mandolin players exploring folk-rock, worship, indie, Americana and experimental textures.

Hollow Okoume Construction With Traditional F-Hole Response

A hollow carved okoume body gives the DM200E a focused, articulate acoustic voice with enough projection for practice and unplugged writing. Arched top and back construction support resonance and response, while traditional F-style soundholes help shape the mandolin’s punch and clarity. The California Gold vintage-style finish gives the instrument a distinctive visual identity under stage lights while still preserving the traditional character associated with folk instruments.

Integrated Electronics for Modern Performance Flexibility

Onboard electronics with volume and tone controls allow players to plug the DM200E directly into an amp, PA or recording interface. That makes live performance easier without relying on external microphones, while also giving recording players a clean signal for layering mandolin parts into modern productions. For musicians moving between unplugged practice, open mics, worship sets, club stages and recording sessions, the Mitchell DM200E double cut acoustic-electric mandolin expands on the traditional mandolin formula with added versatility and stage-ready functionality.
