This is the left-handed version of the Gold Tone Mandola — a traditionally styled Celtic mandola with a solid spruce top, mahogany back and sides, built-in transducer pickup, and a gig bag included. Tuned CGDA (a fifth below mandolin), it delivers authentic Irish ensemble tone with comfortable, low action right out of the box. At $949.99 it is a serious instrument for left-handed players who want genuine Celtic voice without the boutique price tag.
The Gold Tone OM-800+ is a professional-grade octave mandolin built for mandolinists who want to explore a deeper, richer voice on a familiar instrument. With a solid spruce top, mahogany body, 22½" Irish-scale neck, compound-radiused fingerboard, and a passive undersaddle pickup, it's ready for the session room, the stage, or the recording studio. Every OM-800+ is professionally set up at Gold Tone's factory in Titusville, FL.
