Description

Mandolin Top Voicing
From the starting point of the wood's density
and rigidity, each mandolin top is hand
selected, evaluated, and carved to its own
unique thickness; maximizing the tonal
potential of each top. An Adirondack spruce topprovides excellent clarity and focus with lots of
projection and headroom.

Sound-hole
F-style sound-holes are precision cut after the
finish has been applied to ensure a thin, even
finish across the top and exceptionally clean
and elegant lines. F-style sound-holes are
paired with dual tone bar bracing for excellent
projection and bright articulate tone.

Appointments
The Collings MF features a single bound top and
mother of pearl dot inlays. This basic aesthetic is
designed to accentuate the simplified yet
tasteful configuration of the MF model.

Satin Finish
Our nitrocellulose lacquer satin finish provides
an excellent combination of flexibility,
protection and affordability. While less labor
intensive than our full gloss finishes, the satin
finish allows the rich, full tone of the instrument
to come through and creates a unique patina

Playability
A combination of exacting PLEK machine
leveling and hand fret dressing ensure a
comfortable setup and silky fret feel. A
compound 5 1/2 -11 5/8 fingerboard radius, V
shaped neck profile, and 1 9/16 inch string
spacing creates an exceptional playability that is
versatile for a wide range of styles.

Premium Tonewoods
Each of our mandolins, from our most
affordable model to the highest end, are built
with the finest tonewoods available. Each wood
is acquired, acclimated, and hand selected by
master luthiers who pick each component with
the whole tonality of the end instrument in
mind.
