Ibanez M510E-BS 3-stars Reviews

A budget priced electric mandolin!

This instrument was purchased for a large out door performance in mind! Up to this I had to sit in a definite position so as my other mandolin could be picked up by a microphone while I was singing! This was extremely limiting.

By using this instrument I was free to stand and sing!

The quality of sound from this mandolin would not be in the same league as my other mandolin but, with help from a guitar multi-effects pedal, I got over this problem. I was able to compress the signal and add volume with some chorus.

So the sound was enhanced but it would be not be top notch!

However if you are looking for a mandolin but not wish to spend much this could work for you!
