Sage Wisdom

"Good improvisation communicates harmonic progression melodically. Effective melodies manipulate harmonic content through the use of guide tones and preparatory gravity notes, masterfully woven in systematic tension, release, and transparent harmonic definition."

March 16, 2007 | NewMAD Review

It didn't take long for us to be impressed. The NewMAD A5 mandolin we've been sent to review completely wowed. Street talk last Fall when these were to be introduced was, "$3500" for a plastic instrument? They better sound a LOT better than wood..."

Well guess what, they are in contention. If one can own something that sounds this good AND have the residual benefits of longevity and structural stability our consensus is the instrument is worth its asking price. The trance-inducing beauty is hard to capture in pictures, this one is simply stunning in person.

Snuggle up to a little "plastic."
