Amplify your sound with built-in electronicsWant to take your mandolin on stage? The Hartwood Electro Mandolin features a built-in piezo pickup, allowing you to connect to an amplifier or PA system and bring your acoustic sound into an amplified setup. The pickup captures vibrations from the instrument, helping retain its natural character when plugged in. You'll also find dedicated volume and tone controls mounted on the body, giving you convenient access to your sound settings. Adjust your output level to sit alongside other instruments or change the tonal balance to suit the music you're playing. It's a practical addition for rehearsals, performances, and amplified practice sessions. Bright acoustic character with spruce and mapleEven when you're playing unplugged, the Hartwood Electro Mandolin delivers the familiar acoustic sound of a traditional mandolin. Its solid spruce top provides a responsive foundation, bringing clarity and definition to individual notes while reacting to changes in your picking dynamics. The maple body complements this with a bright tonal character, helping chords and faster melodic passages remain distinct. Two F-shaped sound holes allow the instrument to resonate naturally, while the rounded A-style body gives it a traditional acoustic construction. Together, these features provide a balanced sound for folk melodies, rhythmic accompaniment, and more intricate picking patterns. Comfortable playing across all 20 fretsThe maple neck features a soft V-shaped profile, offering a gentle contour that sits comfortably in your fretting hand. Combined with the flat laurel fretboard, it provides a consistent playing surface for switching between chords, practising scales, and exploring melodic runs. The 13.8" (35cm) scale length keeps the frets within a compact playing area, while 20 frets give you room to explore higher notes. White position markers help you navigate the fretboard, particularly when learning unfamiliar melodies. Plus, the adjustable ebony bridge allows you to fine-tune the string height — handy when setting up the mandolin to match your preferred playing feel. Traditional looks with practical modern featuresWith its vintage sunburst finish, rounded A-style body, and cream binding, the Hartwood Electro Mandolin maintains the familiar appearance of a traditional acoustic instrument. The warm burst colouring complements the dark laurel fretboard and ebony bridge, while cream tuning buttons add a classic finishing touch. Two discreet control knobs sit on the body, giving you access to the onboard electronics without changing the instrument's overall character. At 70cm long and weighing approximately 1kg, it's compact enough to handle comfortably during practice and performance. D'Addario medium gauge strings complete the setup, offering a balanced response for both strumming and individual note picking. SpecificationsBody
