Well, you have it already and you say it sounds good. Doesn't much matter what we say. I bought an Old Hickory blonde F style and it was pretty horrible. The frets were ragged, the two-piece back's seam was way off center and it had a very thin, quiet tone. You are right, it is an Asian import, but that doesn't necessarily mean that it is a bad instrument. There are plenty of decent sounding and playing mandolins from the far east.
