Octave Mandolin

The octave mandolin, also known as the octave mandola, is a captivating fretted string instrument featuring four pairs of strings tuned in fifths, one octave below a mandolin. It sits between the size of a mandola and a mandocello and shares construction similarities with other mandolin family instruments. 

Our custom octave mandolins are meticulously crafted from hand-picked, premium wood.

Experience a symphony of sound as the Octave Mandolin delivers a powerful voice with immense sustain and a captivating, rich tonal quality. Our meticulous design ensures the perfect balance between fretting comfort and preserving the G string's resonance. Whether your fingers dance through intricate melodies or strum heartfelt chords, each note resounds with clarity and depth.
