Mandolin Family Instruments

Explore our collection of mandolins, octave mandolins, mandolas, mandocellos, and more to discover the full range of voices in the mandolin family of instruments. Whether you love the deep, expressive sound of an oval hole mandolin or the bright punch of a F-holes, each instrument is expertly set up to play its best. 

Octave Mandolin and Mandolin Family Collection

Octave mandolins deliver deeper, resonant tones than standard mandolins, while mandolas and mandocellos offer distinct voices and expanded range for a variety of musical contexts. Every instrument in this collection is inspected and professionally set up by our expert team. Whether you’re after an F-style octave mandolin for clear rhythm work, a mandola for mid-range melodies, or a mandocello for rich bass lines, you’ll find dependable instruments suited for many styles of music.

The Uniqueness of Our Octave Mandolins and Beyond

Each instrument in this collection is selected for quality, playability, and tone. Octave mandolins at Elderly Instruments are known for their lower tuning and longer scale, making them ideal for those who want a sound that sits below the mandolin but above the guitar. Our collection also includes mandolas—typically tuned CGDA, a fifth below a mandolin—and mandocellos, which extend further into the bass. Every instrument is professionally evaluated, set up, and ready to play out of the case. Shop with confidence knowing you’ll receive knowledgeable service and a carefully prepared instrument.
