Poor quality control lets the customer down and pickup feeds back easily.
A 27.12.2015
The quality of the mandolin itself is very good but the pickup/electronics made this unusable. The pickup is very low output and poor production/quality control had resulted in the mandolin being unusable. Bad soldering had caused a very loud hum. There is something very wrong with the manufacturer's quality control. The issue was sorted, by me, after time and effort and very careful work but most people won't want or be able to do this. After sorting the pickup is prone to feedback easily so be aware. It's probably a better bet to buy the acoustic version and fit a good transducer. Very disappointing, the mandolin should have been fit for purpose and it was just unusable.

Entry level instrument
Fanan 24.07.2025
Very Nice finish and sound, the only downside is the Pickup is very noisy, making it pointless to plug it in. The instrument itself has nothing to point out.

Fair mandolin for a fair price
EdWoods 21.11.2025
I bought this mandolin mainly to play Irish tunes on it and so far it works fine. Gotta be honest though, the strings feel a bit stiff and you can tell it's a cheap instrument by playing it, but that's what I was looking for so no problem whatsoever, but I must say it looks amazing!
