Desert Ironwood McClung XL Plus

Desert Ironwood XL Plus mandolin armrest.

New for 2024. Like our other McClungs but a little longer, 4  5/8 – 5” long.  Its about 17% larger, just more to love. The XL Plus uses the same upward angle as all our McClung armests. The PLUS is the extra extension off the mandolin. It extends about 3/8” off the mandolin body adding a bit more support. One of our regular customers tested the XL Plus and described it as WOW.

Desert Ironwood  McClung  mandolin armrest.
Desert Ironwood (Palo Fierro in Spanish) only grows in the Sonoran Desert in Southwestern Arizona and the Northwestern part of Mexico.? It is one of the hardest and densest woods in the world. It ranges massively in color and can have some stunning figures as a result. It is so dense it will not float.  Very hard to work but polishes well.

Our ergonomic McClung armrests offer comfort and picking arm better control. The upward angle places your arm above the bridge. The enables the soundboard to vibrate more freely without dampening. The instrument will be louder.
