Now in Stock: Andy Manson F Mandolin
Custom options/Upgrades/Remarks:
I have been a great admirer of Andy Manson for many years, his Artistry and Philosophy are unique, and his instruments are among the finest on the planet. Many of his Clients know this, and that's why his list of famous clients is probably sort of endless, A few names on that list, Andy Summers (Police) Jimmy Page & John Paul Jones (Led Zeppelin) Ian Anderson and for instant Don Felder (Eagles) to name but a few.
This particular Andy Manson 3 Point F Style Mandolin is a rare piece of artistry, Andy is known to be a skilled Mandolin maker and you probably aren't aware of it, but you most likely seen his mandolin on Stage with Led Zeppelin in the 1970's and Andy has made them ever since.
Each Andy Manson F is fully made by hand, by Andy Manson himself. This F Mandolin is Featuring a tight grained German Spruce top with gorgeous Figured maple back and sides! This F Mandolin has an incredible powerful tone, as you would expect from one of the great masters of Lutherie, With a warm, woody tone, plenty of bite and chop and incredibly loud. The beautiful oil varnish finish is applied by hand and consumes many hours to apply, but the Varnish finish is well worth it, it contributes to the tone and cuts through every mix in a incomparable way. Much thinner than nitrocellulose lacquer, the varnish finish is much more flexible and allows the wood to resonate more. This makes the mandolin sound more "broken in" from the day One, with warmth, depth and definition that is nothing like a new 'Nitrocellulose' instrument.
This Mandolin is made by a magician for a truly demanding player and features a hand made tailpiece of Andy's own signature Madgarese Bronze, ebony fingerboard and bridge, figured maple neck, olive root heel-cap & Head-facing & pickguard & truss-rod cover & End-splice, impressive Rübner tuners, 354mm scale length, 29mm Nut width and 40mm string spacing at the bridge, celluloid binding. This is a most impressive sounding and Looking mandolin, included is a case.

The Fellowship Of Acoustics, Netherlands
ABOUT US
I have always been opposed to being trapped into a job eight hours a day to purchase the free time to do what I enjoy. That’s why i started the Fellowship of Acoustics. The fellowship of acoustics was founded by Rudi Bults, Guitarist and obsessed with tone and wood. The idea was offering real expertise when trading and selling the finest instruments in the world from our showroom in Bergentheim, Netherlands. Helping others find the right tools and enjoying an atmosphere that’s unhurried, honest and informative that’s my go. We are nothing like the "supermarket" style music stores, but specialize in string-things only. We are widely known for Flattop guitars but also sell electric, mandolins & banjo’s, amps, parts, and accessories. Our store has earned the reputation for being a great place to shop for the best products and service.
It is our hope that this new website - much more than a list of "gear" for sale - will serve as an example of our commitment to offering a more personal approach, a friendly atmosphere, and an ultimately more satisfying experience for our friends and customers.
If you have any questions just dial +31-523-232205 or e-mail info@thefellowshipofacoustics.com My name is Rudi Bults, and I’m always here to help out. Wherever possible, we would recommend that you visit our store and experience our instruments and service first hand. However, because of our high standards you can be confident of ordering online from us. We hope you enjoy your visit to our site, and welcome your feedback.
