Value in an acoustic electric mandolin. The new Rover RM-25E mandolin includes a single coil pickup that allows you to plug-in with acoustic tone, yet still help prevent feedback in high-volume situations. There is a volume and control knob in the traditional location and this has a shortened pick guard that also is used to mount the mandolin pickup.
The RM-25E uses maple for the top back, sides and neck.The body fingerboard and headstock are all bound. Surprisingly it has a bone nut, which is rare for this price point. Not bad at all for a low cost acoustic/electric mandolin.
Based on the popular Rover RM-25 A-model mandolin, the new RM-25E has all the same great features, with the added bonus of a single coil pickup—integrated into the multi-ply pick-guard and easy to reach volume and tone controls to dial in just the right sound.
Maple top combined with maple back and sides give the perfect tonal properties for the beginning player
Mahogany neck offers fast, easy action and inherently long-lasting stability
