I bought this recording king for my daughter about a year back. and it’s really impressive. Although not primarily a mandolin player Ive owned a a couple Collings and a derrington master model and a weber. Even my wife when I played it at the music store against others worth more than 4 times as much instantly said buy it. For $200.00 We got real lucky. It has a little wood in the tone a balanced chop but is really loud
The girl has moved on to piano and is starting a year long program this fall with a very good teacher so this thing has been setting. Im think about doing some upgrades maybe just all i should do is a tone guard it’s already really loud. But im a tinker I know its still only $200 mandolin and tuners a nut and new bridge and tail piece would be more than its worth. Maybe some random hippie sanding. But I also know it would take $2k to beat it. I would like to see how far i could take this thing.
