Gibson Sierra Hull Master Model VOS Varnish Sierra Burst – signature mandolin built to the exact specs of Sierra’s original Master Model
Overview and features
Sierra Hull is a mandolin virtuoso and songwriter celebrated for her technical mastery and creativity within bluegrass and modern acoustic music. The Gibson Sierra Hull Master Model is a faithful recreation of her own F-5 Master Model mandolin – the benchmark for tone, playability, and craftsmanship in the mandolin world. It combines traditional Gibson luthiery with the personal touch and refinements of one of today’s most accomplished players.
Construction and materials/components
The body features the classic F-style design with a hand-carved red spruce top, a two-piece quarter-sawn figured maple back, and flat-sawn figured maple sides. Both the top and back are multi-ply celluloid nitrate bound. The instrument is finished in hand-applied VOS varnish in Sierra Burst, a rich and distinctive color exclusive to this model. The eastern curly maple neck features Sierra Hull’s custom narrow neck profile and an ebony fingerboard with 29 frets and mother-of-pearl dot inlays.
Details and hardware
The truss rod cover bears a reproduction of Sierra’s signature, while the silver-plated tailpiece cover is engraved with her initials. Premium Waverly tuners ensure precise tuning and stability. Other hardware is silver-plated for a refined vintage aesthetic. An ebony bridge provides excellent tonal transfer. Each mandolin includes a certificate of authenticity, Sierra Hull BlueChip pick, sticker pack, a custom paisley leather strap, and a vintage replica case.
