    yea, they're in a store in oprymills mall in nashville, they are a waste of money i my opinion- that bottom point looks dangerous , go with a kentucky 250 for the same price

    dang, that lap-point looks big and sharp. be careful with that thing, you could put somebody's eye out with that.

    You could throw a cat through that scroll opening!

    I know that it's probably not very good but I only gave $80 for it with a hardshell case. It does have a solid spruce top.

    wpete,
    That's a fantastic buy considering that you got a hardshell case and a solid top instrument. I retract my cat statement!
    Good luck with it.

    Jim,

    You kill me. My wife is a vet and has the hand scars from many a cat to prove it. She would ask, but can you retract a cat from a scroll?
