I love my Les Paul Standard so binding on the front only is hardly a deal breaker! Great demo, beautiful recording quality and love the banter!

Managed to find a brand new 2012 MD-515 with a gloss finish -- it had been on the shelf for 10 years! Sounds great right out of the box. Very resonant. Finish had plenty of time to harden.

Very nice! Thanks for watching and commenting. Please like, share, and subscribe if you haven't yet already😄

I have one of these. It is fantastic. Beyond great. Sounds beautiful, rings beautifully acoustically, I have a fish man bluegrass pickup in it, sounds amazing. It looks amazing aswell. I’ve actually played it so much the finish is starting to come off around the holes😂 but I don’t expect that to happen to anyone who plays casually, I play 4-5 hours a day and use it on stage. I’m not lying when I say it’s the best, if not the second best mandolin I’ve played. I’m putting it right up there next to a Gibson. If you’re looking for a quality mandolin at a solid price point, get this. It will not disappoint. I’m in love with it.

Eastman is the new Martin.

Hey I love the banter but in the constructive criticism comment section here maybe instead of 90% talking and 10% playing reverse that. Keep up the good work

[@AcousticShoppe]

Thanks for the feedback! This video is a bit older but in our more recent videos we certainly try to play much more & answer questions we believe viewers want to know before purchasing. Thanks for watching!

You had me the Pink Panther reference. I’ll take two! This is anonymous, right?

PLEASE do a review like this on the MD515CC/n. 🙂

[@AcousticShoppe]

We will definitely put it into the works! We have done a review on the A-Style version, the MD505CC/n.

I have a 515 for a few years Couple of years ago I got a Weber Bitterroot, which I really like, but I find myself gravitating back to the Eastman Here's the thing- would it be a good idea to upgrade to an Eastman 915 rather than something like a Northfield? I mean, the Northfield is more expensive and I like the neck of the Eastman Incidentally- have you ever featured a 915..?

[@superalvedon97]

What kind of mics are being used?

[@derw3lf]

Hey guys! Maybe a stupid question, well... your title tune here sounds really nice. Does it have a name? By the way, after your review here I bought this mandolin. Really beautiful instrument. Many thanks! And greets, Wolf (from Germany)

[@AcousticShoppe]

Hello Wolf! Yes, the tune is called Come Hither to Go Yonder. Watch the full performance here and be sure to subscribe for more! kzbin.info/www/bejne/eavSiqyEaa2Xh5Y

@@AcousticShoppe Guys, you are great. Many thanks!

[@mitzioden4926]

It's a Bill Monroe tune

[@Iceland874]

That’s snazzy but too big for me. I’m going to get a 504 lefty.
