The ‘White Face’ models draw their inspiration from Gibson mandolins from around 100 years ago...........
At Gibson the marketing department came to the conclusion that the popular mandolin orchestra’s were all men in black playing dark black or sunburst mandolins that you could hardly see on stage. So why not make a clearly visible white mandolin!
With age the surviving mandolins turned into a rich ivory color that goes so well with the mahogany color of the back, sides and neck.
