Product Detail
Mandolins have been a staple in music since the 17th century, thanks to their unique and crisp sound. We offer both F-Style and A-Style mandolins, so you can play any melody you like. This A-Style mandolin features a spruce top, sapele back and sides, an M Okoume neck, a purpleheart fretboard and bridge, white dot inlays, and chrome mandolin tuners. It has 20 frets, a purpleheart saddle, a string gauge of .010/.014/.024/.034, a string space of 10mm, and factory tuning of 1E,2A,3D,4G. PLU: M510OVS
Using your Ibanez A-Style Mandolin is a breeze. First, make sure it's tuned to the factory settings (1E,2A,3D,4G). You can use the chrome mandolin tuners for this. When you're ready to play, hold the mandolin comfortably, with your left hand on the fretboard and your right hand near the bridge to pluck the strings. To get the best sound, use a consistent and smooth picking motion. As for maintenance, keep your mandolin in a dry and cool place to prevent warping or damage to the wood. Wipe it down after each use to remove any dirt or sweat. If you notice any issues with the strings or tuning, don't hesitate to replace the strings or adjust the tuners. With proper care, your mandolin will serve you well for years to come.
