Epiphone F5G Mandolin & Hardshell Case

Designed by Gibson Instrument Designer Lloyd Loar, the F-5 became the most popular and most imitated American mandolin, and the best-known F-5 was owned by Bill Monroe, the father of bluegrass music, who in turn helped identify the F-5 as the ultimate bluegrass mandolin. This Epiphone Inspired by Gibson Custom Shop model is a faithful recreation of the time honored, legendary Gibson. Its high-end appointments with great playability, tone, looks, and quality will be most desirable to players of all types! Features include: “The Epiphone” logo in MOP, vintage tuners with pearloid buttons, glued dovetail neck to body joint, single action truss rod with 2 screw truss rod cover, figured maple neck with ebony fretboard and MOP dot inlays, single bound top with solid maple back and sides with solid Englemann spruce top, and a hard case.
