- Solid Carved German Spruce Top
- Solid Carved Alpine Maple Back & Sides
- Excellent full tone
Based on popular mandolins of the early 1900s, the KM-250 features solid hand-carved tops and backs that are meticulously arched and graduated to achieve the correct balance of strength and lightweight rigidity for optimal tone. This quality A-style mando is a real bargain!
Every Kentucky mandolin is meticulously hand-crafted from the finest materials to produce the best possible instrument for players of every level. They are ideal for bluegrass music and played by professionals in the USA and Europe. These come from the same company that makes Blueridge guitars and Regal Dobros. We have a unique example of this model at our Central Arcade store, Newcastle. Please visit to give it a try in our private audition room.
