A bold twist on tradition, the Eastman MD514 F-Style Mandolin brings together vintage craftsmanship and modern refinement in one beautifully appointed instrument. With a rich, resonant voice and a sleek high-gloss black finish, this limited edition model is made to stand out—both visually and sonically.

Classic F-Style Elegance, Oval Hole Warmth

Crafted with a solid Adirondack spruce top and solid maple back and sides, the MD514 delivers the warm, woody resonance mandolin players love, with added richness from its oval soundhole design. The F-style body ensures excellent projection and a beautifully balanced tone.

Effortless Playability and Fine Details

A 12" radius ebony fingerboard, paired with 23 Jescar frets and a comfortable 13 7/8" scale, makes the MD514 a pleasure to play. The bone nut, adjustable compensated ebony bridge, and Pingwell tuning machines ensure precise intonation and stability, while the ivoroid binding and pearl inlays add a touch of timeless class.

Quality from Top to Tail

This mandolin features a single-acting truss rod, Eastman cast aluminum tailpiece, and comes strung with D’Addario XT Phosphor Bronze 1140 strings. Its high-gloss finish enhances the striking black color and protects the tonewoods for years of performance. A hardshell case is included.
