The Loar LM-520 Performer F-Style Mandolin Hand-Carved Vintage Sunburst

Description

This Loar LM-520 Performer F-Style Hand-Carved All-Solid Mandolin is used but in excellent condition. It was very well cared for by its original owner and looks and plays great! There are no dings, dents, scratches, or signs of any heavy playwear. The mandolin has been professionally set up so the neck is straight, the action is low and comfortable, and the mandolin chords clearly and easily all the way up the fretboard. Awesome deal on a great playing and sounding Loar LM-520 F-Style Mandolin!
The hand-carved LM-520 F-model mandolin is our response to players' requests for a great-sounding, high-value mandolin with low key appointments.
The LM-520 is carefully assembled in the same hand-carved workshop that gave birth to the industry-leading LM-700-VS, and has a similar hand-carved, fully graduated spruce top. The solid maple back is also hand-carved, and the solid maple sides complete the all-solid package. The maple neck has a comfortable rounded "V" profile finished with a padauk fretboard. The compensated adjustable ebony bridge and high quality vintage-style Grover tuning machines insure that these mandolins have great intonation and stay in tune no matter how hard they are played.
Perfect for players who want a high-quality, great-sounding hand-carved mandolin but don't need all of the bells and whistles, these minimally appointed instruments deliver the high-end tone, chop and projection mandolin players have come to expect from The Loar.
