Beautiful sound.
I've not had much luck with cheaper mandolins in the past so I decided to spend a bit more this time. I always fancied an F-style mandolin and have read good reviews about the Loar brand. When I received this I could play it straight from the box. It came fully set up and with D'Addario strings which I've always considered the better option. The design is as pretty as it looks in the picture, despite having to remove the usual bits of fluff and sawdust that seem to come with every new instrument these days and it's very well put together. The most striking feature is the sound, it's gorgeous. This is an absolute delight to play.

great value for the money
wanted to get back into Mandolin playing after a long break. Purchased first a lower cost instrument I then had to return it as the top was sagin-in. The LM-520-VS was the right choice. Easy to set-up, excellent sound and quality of workmanship. Only thing missing is a case (need to order extra) and a pick-guard I was used to in the past.

Stunning sound
I bought this as a gift for my wife.
The sound is beautifully warm and has great clarity.
I find it a little hard to play due my large hands but when in the hands of someone who can really play, it's stunning.
The finish is very good.
