Re: Mandobird Regrets?
I think it's a good entry-level emando. It's entirely possible that my feelings for it are tempered by my not being an entry level player, so with my effects and general know-how I am able to get it to sound pretty real without trying too hard. You may want to modify it or put that money toward a swankier axe further on down the road, but for getting your feet wet in this river you can't beat the price. My next step in this area is more likely a decent 8-string rather than a snazzier 4-string, because I really do want that ringing double string sound. But I know I will be sacrificing the string bending to have that, and I am rather fond of this capability. Of course, I could be mollified with a whammy bar ...
But that's just my opinion. I could be wrong. - Dennis Miller
