Description: 

The 1919 C.F. Martin Style C Mandolin is a high-end, vintage flat-back instrument known for its exceptional craftsmanship and rarity. Only 393 (or 394) Style C mandolins were produced. In 1919, this model represented a premium offering from Martin, featuring superior materials and ornate aesthetics compared to the entry-level Style A.

Very clean condition, original finish (no overspray), tuner plate is very clean with no rust/oxidizing. Binding is in excellent condition, pickguard is curling slightly with some small cracks in the top along the edge of the guard. Includes original hard case.

 

The 1919 Martin Style C mandolin is a rare, high-quality flat-back instrument produced during a short 1917–1920 production window. It features premium materials like Brazilian rosewood back/sides, an Adirondack spruce top, and ornate marquetry. Known for a brilliant, balanced tone suitable for classical/Celtic music, these are now prized vintage collectibles.
  • Body Type: Flat-back, bent-top ("induced arch") design.
  • Woods: Brazilian rosewood back and sides, Adirondack spruce top, and typically a cedar neck.
  • Ornamentation: Often features a Style "D" marquetry, pearl inlay, and intricate bindings. Some early 1919 models may feature abalone, according to discussions.
  • Hardware: Known for high-quality engraved tuners and ebony bridges.
  • Sound: Often described as having a bright tone, suitable for folk and classical styles.

These instruments are often considered premier examples of Martin's early 20th-century craftsmanship before they focused heavily on guitars.

Very easy to mount on the wall. Very sturdy with about 10-12 lbs on each shelf. Only took about 15 minutes to hang each one.

Easy to install. Sturdy enough for 2 large rambunctious kitties to play on and look very nice. I was working on a vertical play space for the cats and since these come in many sizes it worked great. I did add grip tape to some.

Not the best quality
Color: Rustic Brown, Size: 35 Inch, Style: 2 Pack, Color: Rustic Brown, Size: 35 Inch, Style: 2 Pack
The shelving unit was not as I had expected. It arrived damaged. The damage is on the under side though. They are hollow and not hardwood as I had expected. Save your money if you want something of good quality. These are like 3 pieces of pressed wood glued together. They are space saving and look great in my space. The mounting hardware it comes with was plenty enough to hang these but make sure you hang them in the studs if at all possible. Assembly was simple. It does come with a micro level. Which a kid or pet could accidentally swallow. It’s like pill capsule sized so just be careful when opening the package.
