Harris “Style 5” Mandolins |
Tailored for professional and serious musicians,
Harris mandolins offer a contemporary mandolin with the
warmth and character of a vintage instrument. Their inherent
rich tone and superb playability make Harris mandolins
distinct among new mandolins. Greatly influenced by the
Lloyd Loar mandolins of the 1920s, Troy Harris incorporates
the subtle details particular to the original F-5 design.
