Gibson F5-G Mandolin Dark Burst w/Case

The F-5G features all the singing tone and craftsmanship of the historic F-5 Fern, with less appointment and lighter ornamentation. This stunning modern masterpiece combines incredible affordability with the articulate, precise tone of a classic F-style Gibson mandolin. With flowerpot headstock inlay, Sunburst finish, and hand-engraved hardware, the F-5G is an understated beauty that carries on the incredible tradition of Gibson Original acoustic instruments.
Even with its simple appointments, the Gibson F-5G Mandolin is one gorgeous instrument. The bound scroll work meets Gibson's toughest standards, the same standards used on the F-5L with top-grade materials and impeccable craftsmanship. Carved spruce top and solid maple back and sides, extended ebony fretboard, and tuned parallel tone bar produce unsurpassed tone.
