Sound Pure's Take
Nothing like a work of art that likes to work! From the tonewoods to the appointments (that fingerboard extension alone is enough to make any Gibson-phile swoon) this little F style goes all the way. Tonally, you can go from brassy and barky to sweet and birdlike in a flash. And look Opry-worthy all the while!
From Collings Guitars
The MF Deluxe provides upscale features like grained ivoroid neck and peghead binding, an ivoroid bound pickguard and glossy nitrocellulose lacquer top. With a fully carved Adirondack spruce top and maple back and sides, the MF Deluxe is built with the same quality construction as our fully-appointed models. These instruments produce the rich, woody tone that one would expect from a professional quality mandolin at an affordable price.
