Review: Excellent Quality and Sound for an Amazing price. - I have played guitar and bass guitar for 13 years. I'm currently stuck in the hospital for a while and decided to learn a new instrument. I picked the mandolin for its small size and that I'm already familiar with fretted instruments. First thing is the finish... WOW I read reviews saying that they had also been amazed by the finish on this instrument, but I was not prepared for how good it really looks. I did have to adjust the bridge for intonation and height, but it was relatively easy (and the mandolin came with instructions on how to adjust for intonation). I had read reviews stating that the action was high, and for a mandolin this might be true; however, after years of bass playing it felt pretty comfortable to me. The strings that are on it are not the highest quality, and that seems to be typical for a starter instrument ( I have no idea why, strings are an essential part of getting good tone on any instrument) and I had ordered an extra set of D'addario strings when I ordered the mandolin. The mandolin arrived a day early and the new strings are not here yet, but when they are I will be switching them out. I noticed on one of the D strings that the string was not wound properly and that string has a very dull sound. This mandolin is laminated instead of solid wood, however for the price I wasn't expecting solid wood. That said, the body is far weightier than I would have guessed, and feels to be very solid construction. Other reviews said that there is no truss rod, but the neck on my instrument feels very solid, and is made of a pretty thick piece of wood, so I doubt it will be warping any time soon. Almost all of the negative reviews said that the strings won't stay in tune #1 as I have already said, the strings on it are not high quality #2 all new strings on any instrument will need a few days to stretch under tension before the instrument will stay in tune for a long time. Over all I am very impressed with the quality of this instrument even if I had paid three times the price. My only big carp about it is the strings, so I do recommend that you order an additional set when you order this mandolin. ( I ordered D'addario because I use their strings on my guitars and basses, and I've never had a problem. However I'm sure that almost any name manufacturer of strings such as: Martin, GHS, Dean Markley, La Bella, ect... would also be fine) If you're a complete beginner and are not comfortable with doing this yourself any music store should be able to teach you how to for a small price (usually around $15 where I live) Good Luck and Happy Pickin'
Review: Extraordinary instrument for the money - OK. First of all, when I opened the box, I was (like some of the other reviewers) astounded at how nice this Mando looks. It looks like it was much more expensive than it actually was. Once I tuned it, the quality of the sound was better than I had expected also. It does come with Steel strings, so I've ordered some Phosphor Bronze to replace them. I think that will improve the sound even more. It comes with an adjustable bridge - at the lowest setting it is still just a tad higher than I would like, but not so bad that the play will suffer. I was also impressed with the feel and balance. It has a good, solid feel to it - not too heavy or too light - and the neck is very fast. The tuners are adequate, though not superb, still better quality than I expected at this price. I bought this when it was on sale for $39.99. I play Uke and had always wanted to try stringing a Mando as an 8-(metal)string Uke. As you might imagine, I really wasn't anxious to take an expensive instrument and experiment with it. This was the perfect opportunity to try out that whim. However, due to the character of this instrument, this may turn out to be something truly unique.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good For the Money
*by M***I on September 19, 2012*

I bought this item as a beater/practice mandolin. Arrived when expected and was undamaged. For the money, this mandolin is a good buy. For $50, you'd be hard pressed to find anything coming close to this in quality anywhere. Keep in mind that when I say this, this is obviously not a high-end instrument, but it definitely is not a piece of crud. The tone is pretty good- crisp and bright, and the intonation does not get out of whack way up high on the fingerboard. The action might need a bit of adjustment, depending on your preference, but this can be done by using the thumbscrews on the bridge, so that's convenient. The tuners are also decent, but the pick guard was a little loose on arrival, at least in my case. That was easily fixed with a screwdriver, though. Of course, being $50, there are some downsides to note. The finish looks nice with its sunny golden color, but it is notable on acute inspection that it is not hand-stained. The gradient between the black and yellow finish is where it's most apparent (can see speckles from the finish being sprayed on where it transitions). Another thing to note is that the top and back pieces are not bookmatched. To explain, bookmatching is a woodworking procedure where a board is run on its edge vertically through a bandsaw to get two pieces, that when opened like a book (hence the name), have a symmetrical grain pattern. Look it up if I didn't explain it that well. In any case, most instruments have a symmetrical grain pattern to the wood, mostly for aesthetic and also structural purposes. The fact that this instrument does not have this, though, does not bring it down much, and honestly, I spent too much time talking about it anyways. Other than this, the only other point about the workmanship I have to point out that there was a bit of a defect in the purfling (the decorative edge to the instrument). All in all, though, this instrument is definitely worth the money I paid for it. If you are a beginner at the mandolin, this item cannot be beaten as a starter instrument. If you are an experienced player, this item is good as a practice instrument, but I would not use it to replace one of my nicer instruments. In other words, I was pleased with my purchase.
