The Loar

Description

Handcarved and graduated from solid select tonewoods and featuring a lightweight nitrocellulose finish for incredible projection, the Loar LM-600 mandolin is an accurate replica of the original 1920s F5-style mandolin.

The LM-600's handbuffed tobacco sunburst finish with nitrocellulose lacquer provides a vintage sheen and an authentic pre-war-style bark that will impress even the most avid vintage purist.

This professional model also features a solid handcarved spruce top, solid handcarved highly flamed maple back and sides, a one-piece maple neck with rounded V profile, bound rosewood fretboard, and an abalone and mother-of-pearl custom flower pot headstock inlay.

The LM-600 comes with a case.
