Collings MT Mandolin (#4220)

2019 Collings MT mandolin. Recently(2025) refinished at the Collings factory.

A hand-carved work of art from Austin, Texas, featuring an Engelmann spruce top, figured maple back and sides, and a thin nitrocellulose lacquer finishthat lets every note ring clear and true — bright, clear, and aching all at once.

“The sound of the mandolin is a very curious sound because it’s cheerful and melancholy at the same time.”

— Rita Dove, U.S. Poet Laureate
