Kentucky KM-252 Artist A-Model Mandolin – Handcrafted Blonde Masterpiece

In 1922, mandolin designs evolved to meet changing musical tastes. The introduction of F-shaped soundholes replaced traditional Oval-hole designs, resulting in tighter, more balanced sound with accentuated treble frequencies. The Kentucky KM-252 Artist A-model Mandolin embodies this evolution, offering professional quality at an affordable price. Handcarved spruce tops and maple backs are meticulously arched and graduated for optimal tone and lightweight rigidity. With its authentic, vintage 1920s-style body outline and one-piece maple neck, this mandolin is perfect for musicians seeking a rich, balanced sound. America’s favorite mandolin choice just got even better!
