Perfect for those who don't want a longer neck than an octave mandolin but need the versatility of the added 5th bass course. The same body as the OM is used and with the familiar 14 fret neck.
Tuned as DGDAE or similar, it can also be re-strung to accommodate a 5th higher such as GDADA.
Available as flat-top.
