Handcrafted tone, made to last.
Beautiful, unique instruments, individually handmade for tone and playability.
Selected woods with fine grain and stunning figure are brought together into one-of-a-kind instruments that highlight versatile tone, volume, and sustain.
Experience, craftsmanship and attention to detail are the hallmark of Kettler Mandolins. Respected by well known mandolin players in the 1970s and 1980s, new Kettler Mandolins are available once again today here on the website and through selected dealers.
If you’re interested in a custom mandolin, pre-orders may also be available. Get in touch with the details of what you’re looking for.
