Eastwood Guitars Mandocaster 12 - Sunburst High Tuned 12-string Octave Guitar

Eastwood Guitars Mandocaster 12

Hi-tuned 12-string “octave” electric guitar

Electric Mandolin tone with familiar guitar chord shapes

The Mandocaster 12 is an “Octave Guitar”. Essentially a 12-string electric guitar that’s tuned E to E, but an octave higher than a traditional electric. This provides the tone of a Mandolin with the familiar chord shapes of a traditional guitar. Imagine putting a capo on the 12^th fret of a standard 12-string – That’s the sound we are talking about here, but with a longer, more manageable scale length for better playability and 12 individually adjustable saddles for better intonation.

Since its introduction, the Eastwood Mandocaster has been one of the top selling electric mandolins in the world. The Mandocaster 12 is a perfect addition to any studio and a great songwriting companion, filled with inspiration. Finally, a “mandolin” that guitarist can enjoy with their stubby fingers and without having to relearn the chord shapes. Recommended string gauges are .008”/.008” – .010”/.010” – .013”/.013” – .012”/.022” – .014”/.032” – .022”/.042”
