Mandolin
Our handcrafted mandolins pay tribute to traditional build methods and body styles while delivering a balanced and refined tone.

The Teardrop
Simplicity of design without sacrificing quality and tone. A-style or teardrop mandolins offer the benefit of a fine mandolin without the extra cost of the F-style. Its tonal brightness makes it a popular choice in the classical, folk, and Celtic genres.

Find your place in the mix
Known for having more treble attack and percussive "chop" than oval hole instruments, F-hole mandolins are the first choice in ensemble settings where volume competition can be an issue.

All of our guitars and mandolins are built in workshops in Beijing by an expert team of luthiers and craftsmen.
