The 2021 Kentucky KM-272 is a modern take on classic oval-hole A-style mandolins, offering a warm, resonant tone suited for folk, jazz, Celtic, and old-time music. Its solid carved spruce top and maple back and sides deliver a rich, mellow sound with excellent sustain. The slim maple neck and rosewood fingerboard provide comfortable playability. Finished in a high-gloss transparent amber lacquer, it features vintage-inspired aesthetics, including a snakehead headstock with a pearl wreath inlay and ivoroid binding. The mandolin comes equipped with nickel-plated open-gear tuners, and an adjustable ebony bridge. Includes a gig bag.
