The Ibanez M510E A-STYLE Acoustic-Electric Mandolin has a unique crisp sound that projects well whether it's played acoustically or via the single coil magnetic pickup. Thanks to its comfortable maple neck and rosewood fretboard the M510E is easy to play. The A-Style body with its laminate spruce top and sunburst finish is easy on the eyes and produces a pleasing acoustic tone that makes it hard to put down. For plugged-in performance the M510E's magnetic pickup delivers true mandolin sound without the need for batteries and is adjusted by the on-board passive volume and tone controls. Case sold separately.
