Octave Mandolin M1087-P : well worth the money

Well what can you say for the price? brilliant!. Good over all sound, nice action and a well built instrument. Sounds great acousticly and has good volume when running through an amp.

An ideal begginers instrument for someone (like myself) looking for that transition from mandolin to something a bit different. It add something different to your overall sound and in a band setting is brilliant.

The only downside I had was the strings, very poor quality and when it came to tuning up the ones on the instrument just snapped, so would advise getting an additional set of better strings.

Well packaged and shipped well within the time scale, I will try and get some footage up on my band website for any potential buyers to make their own judgement. www.acornroots.co.uk
