2022Northfield Flat Top Octave
SOLD
Case: Hardshell fiberglass
Description:
Lowe Vintage is pleased to be a dealer for Northfield Mandolins! This Flat Top Octave features a 22" scale with an Alpine spruce top, walnut back, sides & neck, 1 13/22" nut width, compound radius fingerboard, spirit varnish finish, and Gotoh tuners. This instrument also features a custom "no pickguard" option. Comes in a fiberglass hardshell case.
From Northfield:
Our flat top octave is a creation merging traditional small-bodied guitar building with friendlier ergonomic body features. The shallower, tapered body is more accessible to mandolin players and the resultant tone has a sonic signature that does not mingle with other instruments or get lost in the mix.
This instrument has it’s own voice. Rich, woody, focused…As great for back-up as it is for solo and melody work.
I wanted to give an update and offer a little more clarity on what’s going on and why the showroom is currently closed. As you know, we’re a small father/son operation, and on Sunday my dad experienced “sudden cardiac death” while out with my mom. A Good Samaritan and real-life hero named Jose Moreno immediately started life-saving CPR until EMTs arrived, who were able to revive him. They say he was gone for about 6 minutes. He is doing well and will make a full recovery, thanks to the actions of Jose. Obviously it will take some time for him to get back on his feet, and my band will be touring today, December 11th, through December 22nd.
We will post updates as we can, but I expect the showroom will be closed through Christmas. We will still be answering emails and inquires as we can, and instruments are still available for purchase (although there will obviously be a delay in shipping). We appreciate your patience & understanding as we work through this! -Will Lowe
