Gold Tone GM-10 Frypan Mandolin

Gold Tone GM-10 Frypan Mandolin 

The Gold Tone GM-10 Frypan Mandolin is a faithful homage to the legendary Flatiron M2 mandolins of the late 1970s, inspired by the Army/Navy-style instruments of the early 20th century. Handcrafted with a solid spruce top and solid maple back and sides, this flattie delivers vintage-inspired aesthetics with modern reliability. Its lightweight 1.8 lb. design, paired with a mahogany neck and rosewood fingerboard, ensures comfortable playability and portability for musicians on the go. The gloss poly finish and striped tuner buttons complete its classic, timeless look.

Rich, bright, and sparkling, the GM-10 produces a full tonal spectrum that projects clearly in any setting. Its solid wood construction enhances resonance and response, and its tone continues to mature and open up with regular playing. Whether strumming chords or executing intricate melodies, the GM-10 provides a versatile voice suitable for both casual jamming and focused practice.

Perfect for beginner mandolinists seeking an entry-level solid wood instrument, travel musicians in need of a lightweight companion, and enthusiasts drawn to historically inspired designs, the GM-10 stands out for its combination of portability, solid tone, and affordability. Its compact size and professional-grade construction make it ideal for students, teachers, and performers alike.
