    Who makes that case? Looks like what I am looking for for my F5G; hard shell, plenty of inside padding, and most importantly, room for my stuff. Thanks.

    Hi Ashville Picker. That's actually our case. Here at our shop we custom fit the cases with a block and padding set-up that we think protects the instrument well, and keeps everything orderly inside the provided accessory pocket. The case is a multi-ply wooden shell, covered in a rugged tolex-like covering. We've kept the size compact to make travel easy and really like the fact that it's not too heavy or overbuilt. The case also has a few different features about it that aren't usually found inside mandolin cases:

    We've set it up with special blocks that can be used to suspend the instrument inside the cavity. These blocks are removable and help protect the instrument from extra shock. They also help keep the instrument from touching all of the surfaces of the interior velvet, which in warmer summer months, considering our mandolins are made with spirit varnish finish, can be a major advantage and helps to protect the instrument's finish should things heat up a bit in transit, at a festival, or after a long gig in the hot sun. As a simple touch, the pocket, removable peghead rest and neck strap have been trimmed out with some nice leather we picked up from a high-end luggage maker.

    Please let me know if you have any other questions. Thanks for inquiry and good luck with the giveaway! -Adrian (www.northfieldmandolins.com)

    Thank you Northfield and Mandolincafe! This will make someone very happy! Not me however because the only thing I EVER won was the 1969 Army lottery ( number 52) and I went to Vietnam! But I did come back!

    Many thanks to Scott and Northfield!

    Given the attention that Northfield has paid to the case ... one can only imagine how carefully they approached building the mandolin. I'm in ... but unlucky. Congratulations to whoever wins it.

    What a nice instrument. I just started playing on an "A" Johnson MA-100. What a step up this instrument would be. I can't go a day without playing now, with the Northfield I would have to kick my wife out of the bed!
