Barnes & Mullins Mandolin - Wimborne Model

The BM600 is an A-Style mandolin named after Wimborne in the English county of Dorset. It was during the late 19th century that Albert Mullins and S Bowley Barnes first met in the town of Wimborne and formed the friendship upon which the next few decades of performance and business would be founded.

A traditional A-Style mandolin, this model features a dark stained finish and a Ovenkgol fingerboard to ensure an authentic feel and appearance.
