Martin had built several styles of carved mandolin starting in 1930, but by the 1950's only the 2-15 remained. These have a more delicate tone than a typical Gibson but are quite useful for a number of musical styles. A very good-playing and sounding mandolin with its own character.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eOverall length is 26 1\/4 in. (66.7 cm.), 10 1\/4 in. (26 cm.) width, and 1 7\/8 in.
