Tragically flawed
Jezosaurus 30.08.2020
This arrived thrown together without any testing or quality control. It took quite some time to set the intonation, only to eventually realise that the nut wasn't cut properly and it was impossible to tune well enough to be playable.

The Bridge won't allow the G strings to be set low enough and intonated correctly at the same time. The tuners have considerable play in them. Knock the bridge and it goes instantly out of tune.

Having said that, it sounds fabulous through a long reverb and benefits from a bit of compression and distortion. The pickups give good tone colour

I've totally fallen in love with the Mandocaster as an instrument. So this one is going back and I've ordered something better instead.

Ok bones - Unplayable electrics
Old Blugrasser 12.12.2019
As a basic mandolin, the intonation and action were fine right out of the box, and the overall build seemed ok... right up to the moment where I plugged it in, and there was horrible crackle off the back pickup. Not sure whether to send it back or bite the bullet and replace the electrics (which would turn it into a quite special little mandolin)? Either way, it is a shame that no one at Thomann thinks to check instruments before they send them out. No ammount of great aftermarket service can make up for the delays that sending something unusable create.
