Overview
With a design that reflects the golden era of mandolin building, the American Series FF mandolin combines the best traditional construction elements with Breedlove's cutting edge aesthetics and attention to detail. The FF has a strong, punchy tone with plenty of bass. The deep throaty voice resonates from the F-holes on the Sitka Spruce top. The back and side woods are Western Maple and the Big Leaf Maple neck is faced with an Ebony fingerboard.
Finished in a vintage semi-gloss sunburst, this mandolin exudes warmth and energy. This robust instrument is great for traditional Bluegrass but can certainly hold its own in any genre. With a radiused fingerboard and oversize frets, Breedlove mandolins are extremely comfortable to play.
