I just talked to the people at Folk of the Wood (which i've heard mixed opinions about on here) and they actually recommended the Michael Kelly Legacy Solid over the Kentucky KM-380S. They said that this mandolin (for an import) sounds and plays very well (especially compared to Kentucky). If anyone would want to chime in on this as well, please do so. I know this one is an F-style, which i would actually prefer over an A-style, but I'm just wanting to start playing with a good mandolin withough spending an arm and a leg!!! thanks again,
jeremy
