Quality:
This mandolin is well built. All the seams along the binding were smooth as can be. The quality was even superior to that of my $700 Kentucky Mandolin. The overall finish was like glass.

Value:
Oh yeah!

Sound:
Just short of the typical rich mandolin tone. I experimented by removing the pick-up and wiring and the tone improved a great deal.

Overall:
This mandolin will always be in my collection.
