A Stellar Sound

The McNeela Premium F-Style Mandolin offers a beautiful sound to match its sleek good looks. The tone is clear and bright, with a richness and warmth that you won't find on just any old mandolin. Fitted with premium strings, it offers great action and superb resonance too. The F-Style is perfect for bluegrass, folk, country, blues and, of course, traditional Irish music.

F Hole Mandolins vs Oval Hole Mandolins

Aesthetics and construction aside, F-hole mandolins will typically offer a brighter tone, with more volume and a stronger attack. Sometimes, they can offer a slightly more percussive sound, depending on the instrument.

Oval hole mandolins will usually have a warmer, more woody tone and offer greater projection, sustain and resonance - particularly in the lower register. The higher the quality of the craftsmanship however, the fewer the differences that exist between the two styles.

Traditionally, oval hole mandolins are more commonly used for traditional Irish music and folk music, while F-hole mandolins are played in bluegrass, country, and folk rock.

This is not a hard and fast rule however. You can play any style of music on whichever style of mandolin you prefer.
