    Pretty sweet Mandolin

    Good value for money as it feels like a more expensive instrument. More than enough volume for me, with a great, full sound. Feels like it will get better with age as well. Acoustic Centre was amazing (10 stars) - great, friendly advice and my questions were welcomed. Postage speed and packing quality were fantastic as well. Buy with confidence!

    A true classic

    Looking on YouTube I watched videos of Eastman mandolins being made. Seeing the workshop the skill and old school ways of building instruments. I can not be happier with my Eastman I just love playing it. Great prices for such good quality.

    Great Mandolin!

    I have really enjoyed this instrument. After owning a cheap mandolin, I wanted to invest in something well made that also looked good so that I would actually want to play it! After quite a bit of research I settled on the Eastman MD515 as great value and playability. I've been enjoying playing it ever since.
