Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The MD315 is an F-style mandolin with F-holes, a solid spruce top, and solid maple back and sides. Its ebony fingerboard has a 12-inch radius and 23 frets fitted with Jescar wire, while the bone nut and adjustable compensated ebony bridge support its setup. Satin finishes cover both the body and neck, and the instrument arrives with D’Addario XT Phosphor Bronze strings and a padded gig bag. A single-acting truss rod provides an adjustment point for ongoing neck setup.

Who this is for
