Re: Disappointed in the Loar Mandolins
I've yet to play an instrument prior to purchase except my Spira, which I picked up while in Australia on holiday played then payed. Everything else has been purchased online via our classifieds or from stores/e-bay. In Phillyburbia, I have a few options for mandolins to buy, Mid Mo/Big Muddys and vintage Gibson/Martins only. That's one out of 12 mandolins, and I had already made a deposit on the Spira. I've yet to go into a store play the wall and walk out with the "right one". Honestly, I believe, from reading here for years, that my experience mirrors the experience of the majority of mandolin purchases.
