Gibson
"A-9" Mandolin
The A9 is of beautifully "figured maple" with a vintage satin finish. The finish has a very smooth feel, so the left hand glides effortlessly along the neck. This mandolin produces a beautiful, clear tone quality, and the chops really bark. The A-9 model is an outstanding mandolin, and an excellent value in this price range.
The A-9 has a Sitka spruce top and eastern hard maple back, sides and neck; top bound black binding; nickel plated hardware; a Gibson script headstock inlay; and satin vintage brown finish. The hand-fitted dovetail neck joint, hand-tuned tone chamber and micro thin finish assure a rich, powerful sound that is characteristic of higher-end mandolins. The A body style is comfortable to play and allows easy access up the neck.
