We've just received from Oliver Apitius a beautiful, brand new Apitius mandolin - the Rosine, modeled closely on Bill Monroe's Gibson F-5 mandolin and named after Monroe's birthplace.

Oliver Apitius hand-builds mandolins near Shelburne, Ontario and his instruments are known worldwide for their high quality.

The Apitius Rosine model, based on Bill Monroe's 1923 Gibson F-5 LLoyd Loar mandolin, features a hand-carved AAA-Grade German Spruce top, aged for 15 years. The hand-carved back and hand-bent sides are highly figured flame maple. The ebony fingerboard has a 7.5 inch radius, a 1 9/64ths inch (29mm) nut width and 13.9764 inch (355mm) scale length. Inlays are hand cut mother of pearl, the tuners are 15:1 ratio with antique nickel finish, and the tailpiece is engraved Apitius and is antiqued like the tuners.

The finish is beautiful, and is h hand applied vignette of Cremona Brown sealed with hand brushed oil finish, and is then French Polished.
