Query: Very pleased

The list price of $149 would have been way too high, but at under fifty bucks this is a bargain. Nicely finished with a pleasant sound.Doesn't stay in tune long enough to be used on stage, but as I'm only using it for home recording that's not a problem.If you're looking for a pretty good "starter" mandolin, you can't go wrong with this one.
