The Loar LM-600 or Breedlove Quartz, what to pick?

[Scoxt]

Hello everyone!

Let's get straigh to the point!
I can get both for roughly the same price, the Breedlove is used but in excellent condition and I have played it thoroughly, all it needs is some new strings. It stays in tune nicely and doesn't need any adjustments other than a slight change of action since I get an annoying buzz from the G string.
I have NOT tried and I cannot try the "The Loar" LM-600, and from what I've heard it needs a proper setup, which I am sure I can get from a man named Viktor Flatbush who's a professional mandolin- and guitar maker. "The Loar" will be a brand new, straigh out of the box mandolin.

So, which should I pick?
Thanks!

We did, but I thought that thread was dead, plus, I have the chance to get it from the stats because my parents are over there on vacation. Also, it was the 520, not the 600, my mistake.
I made this thread because I am so uncertain, and scared to make the wrong choice, and I apologize if you take this as spamming.

I don't take this as spamming, but if you go back through the previous thread, everyone voted for the Breedlove, and no one voted for The Loar. At some point, the answer doesn't reside in the opinions of others.

I just did again, and I see your point. Thanks.
