Eastman MD304E

Professional A-style electro mandolin with solid tonewoods and natural amplified sound

The Eastman MD304E is a premium A-style mandolin that blends traditional craftsmanship with modern stage-ready performance. Featuring a solid spruce top, solid maple back and sides, and an integrated K&K pickup system, it delivers a warm, open acoustic voice while faithfully reproducing its natural character when amplified. The oval soundhole produces a smooth, rounded tone with excellent sustain, making the MD304E an ideal choice for folk, bluegrass, Celtic music and acoustic ensembles.

Built with a satin finish that allows the wood to resonate freely, the MD304E offers exceptional tonal response and a refined appearance. The maple neck is paired with an ebony fingerboard and an adjustable compensated ebony bridge, providing outstanding playability, accurate intonation and excellent note definition. A genuine bone nut and premium D'Addario XT phosphor bronze strings further enhance tuning stability and projection.

For live performances and studio work, the discreetly installed K&K pickup captures the instrument's rich acoustic voice without affecting its resonance or aesthetics. The included padded gig bag offers reliable protection for transport and storage, making the MD304E a dependable companion for musicians on the move.
