Brand: FinMc Mandolins
Instrument Categories: Mandolins, SOLD
Here we have the Fintan McEnroe Fin MC14 F-style mandolin from Fintan McEnroe, working in Toronto but originally from Ballyjamesduff, Co. Cavan, Ireland. The ‘14’ in the name refers to the mandolin serial number and production sequence; the Fin Mc 8 mandolin was sold recently.
The Fintan McEnroe Fin MC14 is a traditional F-Style mandolin, with a carved Sitka Spruce top and Curly Maple for the sides, neck and carved back. The fingerboard and bridge are Ebony and the neck contains an adjustable truss rod. The body has double layer faux-tortoise binding, and the inlays are a combination of
Mother of Pearl and Abalone. The finish is a dark, hand-rubbed lacquer sunburst on the body and headstock, with a Tru-Oil finish on the deep V profile neck.
For hardware, a very nice set of Rubner tuners with Snakewood buttons and inserts are at the head, and at the other end there is a Golden Age tailpiece. The Ebony bridge is compensated for each string, and the nut is Bone.
The position markers are dots, and the headstock inlay set includes the FinMc logo and a deco-influenced engraved Mother of Pearl and Abalone design.
Overall the Fintan McEnroe Fin MC14 a very fine instrument, well thought out, cleanly and well built, with a very nice finish. And it sounds and plays as good as it looks!
The Fintan McEnroe Fin MC14 is sold with its original lightweight Gator hard shell case.
