Roots Music Instruments
Ridgeway Mandolin
The Ridgeway is a lonesome sounding mandolin crafted for stage and studio. The zebrawood back and sides provide natural compression and focus on the notes, making it perfect for solo and band recording. Not only does it tonally hold its own in a bluegrass circle, the Ridgeway is also a sight to behold, featuring tortoise binding, abalone inlay, and a gloss finish.
Cheverly Mandolin
The Cheverly is a tasteful mandolin dressed up for the long road ahead. The classic spruce and maple tonewood combination provides plenty of projection to sit nicely in the hierarchy, with a little something extra. Ever modest, the Cheverly features tortoise binding, abalone diamond inlay, and a rub stained matte finish.
Haystack Octave Mandolin
The Haystack is a resonant instrument perfect for songwriting and ensemble performance. It’s also a welcome addition to Celtic sessions and barn jams. Very tonally balanced, this handsome octave features tortoise binding, abalone inlay, and a satin finish.
Tennessee Octave Mandolin
The Tennessee carved top octave mandolin has an incredible soft feel and powerful tone from hand carved, wood joined craftsmanship. The original design draws heavily from the most resonant stringed instruments on earth, incorporating elements of violin and cello construction, to produce a sublime American roots experience.
