The Michael Kelly Mandolins clearly excel from that pedigree.
Michael Kelly is proud to offer the widest variety of mandolins available. Since we own our own factory, every Michael Kelly mandolin is built with care to produce the best tone possible. All Michael Kelly mandolins, from the least expensive to the most, feature solid wood construction. Michael Kelly mandolins are truly "Built on Sound".
The Legacy Deluxe is designed and built in the classic, collectible, f-mandolin style. Impeccable tone comes from the Legacy Mandolin's deeply carved solid spruce top, all solid wood body and dovetail neck joint. The Deluxe also features incredible looking flamed maple on the back, sides and neck which creates a striking visual impact enhanced by gold hardware and a fully bound back.
It is equipped with high quality Grover mandolin tuners and a radiused ebony fingerboard that is scalloped at the extension. The Deluxe has a deep body and careful additional hand carving on the top. If you want an instrument that has classic styling and tone, the Deluxe is the perfect choice.
