This
mandolin is a good starter and intermediate-level instrument. It is not
a main-brand name, and the price and shipping are priced for
affordability. It is a nice product and good value for the cost.
Strongly recommended that take off the factory stock strings and put on
a good set of Martin Mandolin strings. Please see Product Exception
Note below. For best results, please request the mandolin tuning
instructions, which also provides instruction about how to position the
bridge for best intonation. If you are looking for a higher-end
mandolin, write me a message and ask. Don't bid if you are expecting a
high-end mandolin. This is a flat-top mandolin, often referred to as a
Celtic style (pronounced ''kel-tick'').

About Mandolin Strings and Tuning the Instrument
Mandolin
strings are made of metal and for the first few hours, they will tend
to stretch. It may take a few days for the strings to fully settle
in. No matter the brand name of strings, they are going to stretch
when you first put them on. Because of this, do not expect any
mandolin to hold it's tuning on the first attempt. Good strings are
very important. If you need mandolin tuning instructions, email us and
we will send you instructions along with a MIDI music file that you can
use to tune the mandolin. There is no implied warranty on strings.

Product Exception Notes
This
item has pre-installed strings. There have been many that were shipped
with the D and A strings, as same gauge, which means that you won't be
able to tune the instrument until you change out the A-strings. Given
that we recommend that you put on a good set of Martin 80/20 mandolin
strings or buy a set from our store, the issue about strings may not be
an issue for you. However, the product is shipped direct from the
manufacturer and we offer no warranty on strings. Put on a good set of
strings and it will make all the difference. If you use the ''Buy it
Now'' purchase option, you will get an extra set of strings included.
If you go with an auction bid, strings are not included. If you placed
a ''Bid'' and you still want two sets of strings, let us know and we
will add the $12 cost of your strings to your invoice. Strings may be
mailed separately.
