Nice Mandolin For the Price

I bought to replace the Rogue that I learned on, and it is soo much better sounding and playing than that. Worth every penny. Only downside was the fret ends needed a little dressing, Could have played fine without it, but I'm pretty picky in that area

Received the mandolin on time and it was quick !!
Packaging was great, just a quick tune and I was ready to go. AMS is so awesome to work with and purchase from to the point that I ordered the wrong strap for it and when I asked to return they gave me an option of sending me a part that would allow it to work without charge. Highly recommend them and have used them for multiple purchases over the years. I’ll keep coming back.

Product Review
This year my son has become obsessed with music and all things that make sounds, for months he has begged for a piano, it went to a violin, mandolin, so on and so forth. I have heard about this company a few times in the past but didn’t really visit website until my sons interest in music rocketed. I purchased his first piano from this company as there are no words to explain how easy the process was, and I has it sitting on my porch in 3 days. (They also offer monthly payments- which is awesome) then I purchased his mandolin and again, good product and easy purchase. I highly recommend you shop with this company. They will defiantly please. And I will be purchasing in the future as well.

Bought this his to learn to play mandolin. Been a guitarist for a number of years now and this instrument has always intrigued me. Great playability and tone for a mondolin under $200.

My Father, who is 97 as of last August, told me that it is getting hard for him to finger his clarinet and he had played a mandolin when he was young and thought maybe it would help strengthen his fingers if he could play a Mandolin again and asked if I had one in my collection (I have over a dozen guitars and 4 basses but no Mandolins) so I secretly purchased him this model. He was touched and is working on his finger strength again.

"Not as great as I hoped"

Product Review
I find this particular mandolin a bit difficult to play. Not in terms of tuning, as an inexpensive Fender clip on chromatic tuner will zero in on the 2 E's; A's; D's and G's just fine. The sound is very nice. BUT LIKE A CHEAP GUITAR IT IS EXTREMELY HARD ON THE FINGERS. I own a Fender Telecaster. Until I bought that, the Fender Bullet, and even the $600 or so (ca. 1981) Fender Lead II I found hard on the fingers. This mandolin is in that class as far as I'm concerned of instruments I wish I'd given more consideration to playability before committing to it. The frets are close together, I'm just not that crazy about it as I mentioned MOSTLY and pretty much only because the strings really cut into your fingers. My fingers are not that tender and they do just fine with my Telecaster, but this I might trade in. It was my mistake for not looking at and test driving others first before making the purchase. You might want to do the same.

Yes, it is made well. The instrument is sturdy and has good, albeit basic components.
Great. It's my second Ibanez mandolin and I've been happy with both.
Your general opinion of this product.
I love it. It's a great instrument to learn on.
It needs new strings and a set up out of the box. It's great after that.
Good overall tone.
Fantastic.
Adequate. Needs a set up.
