Earlier instruments did not have this neck adjustment nut. It would only be an issue if, at some time in the future, the player would want to adjust the neck because something has occurred that put the neck out of alignment. A solid maple neck with rosewood fingerboard and traditional snakehead-shaped peghead is attached to the body by a modified dovetail neck-body joint not only adds to the authentic look, but also has a comfortable shape that is easy to play, and offers a lifetime of serviceability.The neck adjustment nut does not work, but that does not affect the playability of the instrument. To achieve the best tone and volume possible, select solid spruce-meticulously hand-carved and graduated-is used for the top, while select solid maple is used for the back and sides.
When it comes to tone and playability, the KM-150 also excels. ~ Description ~Kentucky Mandolin Style KM 150 Saga Musical Instruments San Francisco CA Superior Gig BagThe Kentucky KM-150 mandolin is an all-solid, traditionally designed, A-style instrument that beautifully combines period-correct vintage specifications with an amazingly affordable price.
