The MD304 A-style mandolin from Sweetwater earns straight As across the board — it's an outstanding choice at a great price!Solid, mature tonewoods, expertly carved Solid tonewoods give the MD304 a brilliant sound that’s equal parts warm, bright, and faithful to historic designs. The MD304’s solid spruce top is the crux of tone, and it responds instantly to dynamic changes and technique while ensuring notes are loudly projected. Maple back and sides supply vibrant clarity and shimmering overtones that sustain but never overstay their welcome, leaving you free to proceed onto the next chord or riff. Lastly, the MD304 features a maple neck with a “Soft V” carve that simplifies accurate fretting. Even players at Sweetwater with large hands and fingers endorse this “Soft V” carve, as it tends to ward off strain and prevent cramps while giving proper support for effortless play!Rounded A-style body Mandolin players have long prized the symmetrical A-style body shape for its durability, comfort, performance, and price! Well-built A-style models are frequently priced more competitively than more ornate F-style body shapes, which makes this a reliable choice for beginners, but also pros who perform above all else. Moreover, as you fret toward the body, the symmetry of the A-style body provides breezy access to more notes on your lowest string.Eastman Guitars: thinking inside the box Many know the Eastman Music Company as a trusted name in the realm of band and orchestra instruments.
