Paris Swing Mandolin Nuages Natural

Discontinued

MS-120-N

This Paris swing mandolin is not for everyone, but for those select few Gypsy Jazz players, this may be just what you have been waiting for.

 

The Django-inspired Nuages Mandolin features a smaller, oval soundhole which gives the mandolin a brighter tone. 

The peghead is made from ebony, with product designer Greg Rich's distinctive Paris Swing logo in white pearl and gold leaf, and a stylized abalone/M.O.P. "Tour Eiffel" inlay. 

The mandolin features select, solid AAA flamed maple back and sides, a flamed maple neck and a solid sitka spruce top. Each model is bound with tortoise-shell (natural models) or grained ivoroid (sunburst models) binding. 

Each Paris Swing mandolin has a distinctive right-angle cutaway on the treble side that players associate with the great gypsy jazz instruments. The bass side of the body features the traditional F-model mandolin scroll.
