Ortega Americana Series RMAE200PF A-style electric-acoustic mandolin with case

General

The Ortega RMAE200PF from the Americana Series is an A-style mandolin with a solid, curved maple top and solid mahogany sides and back. This results in a warm, balanced sound with clear projection. The neck and fingerboard are also made of maple. Ortega has opted for a striking transparent purple-fade finish, which lets the wood grains shine through nicely in combination with the flamed maple. Add the matching headstock and striking gold-finished hardware, and the result is a stylish, modern-looking instrument with Ortega's well-known premium build and playing quality. The 8-string tuning (G-G-D-D-A-A-E-E) and F-holes deliver the classic mandolin sound for blues, bluegrass and folk.

Striking looks, stunning versatility

For the stage player, the RMA2E00PF is equipped with the Magus X/U pickup system. The built-in piezo pickup, mounted in the bridge, accurately captures the sound of the instrument and sends it to the built-in Magus X/U preamp. This preamp offers a 3-band EQ with separate bass, middle and treble knobs, extensive volume control and a phase invert. Moreover, tuning is easy and straightforward with the built-in tuner that mutes the output signal during use. The preamp is powered by a battery that can be recharged with a USB-C cable, eliminating the need for separate batteries. And for travelling, you get a matching croco leather case, with violet velvet interior lining. In short: the Ortega Americana Series RMAE200PF is a versatile mandolin that combines authentic craftsmanship with a distinct look and modern gadgets!
