Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This mandolin is a beautiful instrument. It is soft, stirring, and easy to play. Even though the mandolin is a 100 star, I had to rate it a 3 because I would not reccomend buying it from amazon. My reasons:
1) It comes unassembled- and personally I don't want to pay someone to set it up after I've had to pay for the entire instrument
2) It is packaged in simply a box and a tiny thin wrapping of foam
Basically, my instrument arrived with the neck snapped, and the strings coiling off it. I had to send it back, and was very dissapointed to see the UPS had crushed the box (and even ripped a hole in it). While I do not at all blame amazon for my mandolin arriving destroyed, it was completely improper packaging for a 400$ instrument. I bought the same mandolin from the 'mandolin store' online, and it arrived in a free hardshell case.
Again, amazon is carrying a lovely instrument, however I do not reccomend buying it from this store.
