Washburn

Description

One of their more popular models, the Washburn M3SW Americana Series F-Style mandolin is an all-sold-wood instrument features a solid carved European spruce top with quartersawn Sitka spruce bracing paired with solid carved Canadian maple back and sides, and a maple neck topped with an ebony fingerboard. This tonewood combination gives it the perfect punctuation for any down-home number. The M3SW comes with a gloss finish with tobacco sunburst complemented by gold die-cast tuners with pearloid buttons for that real old-school vibe.

A hardshell case is included.

Washburn has been building mandolins since the late 1800s. Whether you’re a bluegrass, Celtic or rock player, see how the addition of a mandolin like the M3SW can broaden your sonic pallet and add a new dimension to your music. For traditionalists, you’ll find all the tone and projection you’d expect from their world-class instruments.

    Hi, I would like to know where is it blemished, and how bad is it?

    I’m sorry, we don’t know what the blemish is. The blemishes will be perhaps minor scratches, average handling wear. There will be no effect on playability or sound
