Arch Top A-Style Mandolins Information
Gibson pioneered making mandolins with front and back carved into an arch from sold wood similar to a violin. These days arch tops are also created by pressing the wood to shape. Generally with f-shaped soundholes, this style is preferred for bluegrass music.
Kentucky mandolins are designed by major USA manufacturers Saga, modelled on the best vintage instruments. Every Kentucky mandolin is meticulously hand-crafted from the finest materials to produce the best possible instrument for players of every level. They are ideal for bluegrass music and played by professionals in the USA and Europe. These come from the same company that makes Blueridge guitars and Regal Dobros.
