Descripción

Mandolins developed in Italy in the mid-18th century, with a pear-shaped body made of narrow ribs and very deeply vaulted at the lower end, with fretted neck, open circular or oblong sound hole, four pairs of steel strings, a flat rectangular peg disc set at an obtuse angle, rear pegs, and a low bridge glued to the belly.
