Designed for players who appreciate both vintage aesthetics and modern craftsmanship, the KM-272 combines high-quality materials with superior tone and playability. Whether you're playing old-time, bluegrass, or folk, this mandolin provides a unique tonal character.

High-Gloss Amber Finish for Stunning Looks

The KM-272 is crafted with a solid carved German spruce top for crisp articulation and solid carved Alpine maple back and sides for punchy, resonant tone. The slim Alpine maple neck ensures smooth playability, while the radiused rosewood fingerboard adds to the comfortable feel. The transparent amber lacquer finish enhances the mandolin's appearance, giving it a classic look that stands out on any stage.

Paired with a padded ProTour BV-2520 Mandolin Gig Bag, the KM-272 is as durable as it is stylish. Built for reliable performance, this mandolin offers vintage-inspired tone with modern reliability, perfect for players at every level.
