The Recording King Metal Body Mandolin is one of only mandolin resonators available today and the model with the most similar characteristics of the pre-war originals. This unique model has a nickel-plated bell brass body, 10" hand-spun Continental cone and a beautiful pearloid headstock overlay.

This mandolin has power, projection and style. With the Lily-of-the-Valley back engraving, this metal body mandolin looks and sounds like an antique, custom mandolin. All styles include a featherweight case.
