Rover F-Style Mandolin RM-75

RM-75

 

Folkmusician is best known for the extensive setup work performed on the new mandolins we sell. Unfortunately, our setup is very labor intensive and adds significantly to the cost. If you have someone to do the setup work, you can save some money and buy the mandolin here:




The latest batch of Rover RM-75 mandolins are by far the best yet. These mandolins just keep getting better and remember, RM-75 mandolins sold by Folkmusician receive full leveling/dressing and bridge work in addition to the standard setup routine. The result is the best playing RM-75 available anywhere at any price.

The new Rover RM-75 sets the standard by which all moderately priced mandolins will be judged and it will also make the highest priced ones extremely nervous, too! All proportions and features are exactly like vintage originals produced during the 1920’s and 1930’s that are highly collected today.
