Bundle includes KM-500 Artist A-Model Mandolin, Hardshell Case, Tuner, Strings, Polish, and Polishing Cloth.

The Kentucky KM-500 Mandolin is a brand new versatile instrument that is at the top of its class. A spruce top and Maple body provides the KM-500 with a full clean sound that is voiced for Bluegrass and Celtic styles of music. The fretboard is made of dense ebony with Mother Pearl inlays, this specific design allows for excellent translation of vibrations up and down the neck. A vintage styled ebony bridge and a real bone nut completes the tonal package; the mellow and sweet sound of the KM-500 is a product of the fine craftsmanship that went into its construction.
