Overview
Road Dog F14-F
It’s called the Road Dog because it’s ready to go! The Road Dog looks, at first glance, like a hot rod, but there’s even more under the hood than you might expect. With a deeper body chamber, this F style mandolin roars—with robust bass, killer projection and a rounder tone that adds versatility without sacrificing power or chop.
Made to play, the Road Dog features a scooped ebony fretboard extension and speed neck with evo gold frets, along with a thin Fern Burst nitrocellulose finish that lets every note pop. Tone bar bracing on a 2A red spruce ivoroid-bound top perfects tradition, especially when paired with classic flame maple back and sides. Handmade in Bend, Oregon, with dovetail construction, the Road Dog has all the benefits of deflection testing, employs no clear-cut woods and comes in a touring quality custom Ameritage case.
A flowerpot inlay and nickel tuners adorn the headstock.
