Octave Mandolin M1087 : Good first octave mandolin!

8 years ago

I have been playing mandolin for a couple of years now and I wanted to have a go at a larger instrument in the same family. As this was the cheapest new octave mandolin I decided to go for this one, and it did not disappoint. For it's price it has a great sound, especially if you replace the strings with better quality ones. All I would say is that the tuners are a bit stiff, so fine tuning can sometimes be a slight annoyance, and the bridge feels a bit flimsy, particularly when re-stringing it. All in all though, it is a great first experience with the instrument and I would definitely recommend for beginners or if it is all you can afford!
