2020 Northfield A5 Special

2020 Northfield A5 Special in good condition. Showing a fair amount of player wear in the form of some dings and scratches, but the mandolin is structurally perfect with no cracks or prior repairs, and none needed.

Every A5 Special that we get in becomes an instant shop favorite! The "Artist Series" mandolins produced by Northfield, in our opinion, are some of the finest mandolins available at any price point. Beautiful depth and richness perfectly balanced with a crisp and articulate clarity. Powerful and responsive without sacrificing anything when played in the upper registers. The set-up is buttery smooth and plays perfectly in all positions with no issues whatsoever. At $1200 less than the cost of a new model, this represents a great bargain for those not deterred by some aesthetic wear.

Italian Spruce top, "Premium" maple back/sides/neck, varnish finish, radiused ebony fretboard, ebony adjustable bridge, Gotoh tuners, Nugget tailpiece, tortoise binding, tortoise pickguard, adjustable truss rod, 1-1/8" bone nut. Comes with a deluxe oblong Northfield hardshell case with lots of stickers.
