Korean product with micro piezo built into the bridge, volume and tone. Handle end.

UTILIZATION

Channel super nice, good ergonomics despite the lack of belt clip at the base of the handle. Its pleasant electro-acoustic, a bit feeble in pure acoustic (small volume of the box).

SOUNDS

Lack of power in the bass strings very close to the handle (when it frieze hits hard). To play an instrument is connected.

OVERALL OPINION

Product very well finished, despite a veneer spread "with a ladle" like many Korean products, it is very visible at the base of the handle embedded in polyurethane and which is detrimental to the sound power. The built-in microphone is correct without the parasite. The rate is still high when compared to that of a guitar "made in Korea". We must adjust the bridge to buy (it frieze!) And the original strings are not worth much (they do not agree). This allows you to play mandolin preferably amplified with a quality instrument far exorbitant prices (but justified) creations luthier and incomparable in quality with the Romanian products certainly less expensive but very rough finishes and pick handles!
