Seagull S8 Acoustic/Electric Mandolin with Gig Bag-Sunburst

The Seagull S8 Sunburst EQ mandolin is a great acoustic/electric instrument. It has a hand - finished neck, a solid sitka spruce top, and a Custom Polished Finish, giving you a superb feel and sound. In 2017, it was upgraded with a Seagull proprietary preamp. The volume and tone controls are right on the mandolin's top. Thanks to popular demand, its high - fidelity pickup system lets you take it straight to the stage. Features include a body depth of 1.85 in., body length of 12.24 in., lower bout of 8.22 in., nut width of 1.19 in., and scale of 13.88 in. PLU: 042500.

Using your Seagull S8 mandolin is easy. First, tune it up. You can use a regular guitar tuner. When you're ready to play, hold the mandolin like you would a regular one. If you want to use the electric features, plug it into an amplifier. The volume and tone controls on the top of the mandolin let you adjust the sound to your liking. For maintenance, keep it in the gig bag when not in use to protect it from dust and scratches. Wipe it down with a soft cloth after each use. Also, store it in a dry place to prevent the wood from warping. And don't forget to change the strings regularly for the best sound.
