This 2022 Ellis A5 Special mandolin is an excellent example of the quality and craftsmanship from Tom Ellis and Co. Featuring an Adirondack Red Spruce top, paired with a stunning Sugar Maple one-piece back, this A5 Special brings the same materials, specs and finishing as the more expensive F-style models to the Ellis A-style lineup. Here with a pleasant low-end bark that really drives that one piece sugar maple back, you can feel it vibrating, along with a focus and clarity to the note that really rings out.
We rarely describe instruments as being in mint condition, as there's always something, however this A5 Special is as like new as a used instrument gets. Includes the original upgraded custom Ellis branded Calton case.
