## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great instrument.
*by A***N on March 5, 2011*

Although the instrument is not as set up as one might need to start playing, it is a quality OM and very good for the money. There are no "guarantee" documents or instructions on how to set up the bridge and intone the scale length, so it is assumed you have other sources to know how to begin using the instrument.You might want to google setting up a mandolin bridge.[...]The strings are already attached and horribly corroded which means most likely the mando has been sitting for quite some time. As soon as you set up the bridge, your fingers will turn black from the corrosion. No problem, buy some new strings when you purchase it and change them asap.Meanwhile the tone should yield a nice range of highs and lows and provide a satisfied feeling of playability.The case is not the greatest quality (the inside compartment cover is not hinged all that well) however it works for protection and fits perfectly. Remember though you don't play the case, so it is fine.Overall I would recommend this one, Amazon will over package it for safe shipping and send it to you on time.

### ⭐⭐ Nice sound, defective neck?
*by J***. on February 20, 2025*

When it arrived the strings had a little bit of buzz to them. I checked the neck relief and the neck definitely needed a little adjustment. I accessed the truss rod and give it a little turn counter-clockwise to provide more relief to the neck (i.e., to create more of a bow). I felt no resistance when I did that and the neck relief didn't change. In fact the truss rod spun freely counter-clockwise and did not have any effect no matter how much I turned it. So, unfortunately, the instrument has a badly adjusted neck and buzzy strings and there apparently isn't any way to fix it other than doing repair work that likely will cost more than the instrument.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ with proper setup this mando is great!!!
*by S***E on October 21, 2010*

when you open the box you will be impressed!! no drip makes, no thick varnish, no over gluing on the inside. what it does have is great wood, x bracing, well made fret board, and great tuners. this is a WELL made instrument for the money and more than likely the best for the price range. but i would feel bad is i didnt tell you about the down sides. you need to set up the mandolin. this means set up the bridge, maybe adjust the truss rod, and maybe filing the bridge. so i would tell you to have it professionally set up(dont worry its only like $30-$50). the tailpiece, while nice, is not as good as it could be, but they can be changed out very easily and available online ($30-$200, the cheaper ones will work perfect, should say "cast", and the more expensive are gold plated and things like that to make them expensive). at the end of the day, you will be very happy with this mandolin.
