The Peacemaker - Octave Mandolin
Completely handmade by luthier Charles Sanzone during the global pandemic of 2020, the Peacemaker is an archtop octave mandolin built with rare master-grade tonewoods. Details include Sanzone's original headstock design in handcut abalone inlay, damascus steel tailpiece, artistic and functional relief carving on the back & peghead, a rich sunburst in oil varnish, lake-salvage 3D quilted maple body, and an exquisite old-growth Sitka spruce top sourced from the Alaskan islands. Along with a classy, timeless aesthetic based on the 1920s Gibson L5, the Peacemaker has a hypnotic tone and ease of playability that inspires musicians of all levels.
