Great sounding mandolin

Some frets need to be polished because of buzzing when I lowered the strings, because they were too high compared to other mandolins I played even of this brand. Sound is great even for studio recording.

Great instrument

Sounds great, feels great. No worse than other higher priced mandolins. Getting rid of the nitrocellulose lacquer makes the tone even better.

Great sound for the price

I'm a guitar player, but I've always loved the sound of the F-Gibson mandolins but ot the price. I think the Loar comes pretty close but at a fraction of the cost. It looks beautiful as well, a really well finished instrument. I love it!
