Harley Benton HBMA-50 Mandoline BK

I received an exemplary, perfect instrument. The fingerboard is playable along its entire length at all frets. It's as straight as a string. All notes are perfect 5/5. I only adjusted the bridge lowering using adjustable rotating washers. The string action on this mandolin is masterful. The strings are extremely low, almost as if sitting on the frets, and they sound clean and clear without any hum. The instrument tunes luxuriously, even on harmonics. A beautiful instrument, similar in tuning to a violin. I wholeheartedly recommend it. I hope all buyers receive a model as exemplary as mine. Best regards.
