KM160 vs KM150. Worth the extra 50 bucks?

[john09121]

Currently considering buying a KM160 because the KM150 was out of stock. 160 costs an extra 50 bucks. Is it worth it?

I would buy from folkmusician, but he doesn't include a case and charges the same price.

I just bought a KM 160, I love it. Although I haven't played a 150, alot of people told me that there was a slight difference. I would go with the 160 from The Mandolin Store. They do excellent set ups and also you get a free hard case too.

The 160 also has better hardware than the 150.

I love my KM150 with setup from The Mandolin Hut. Just my 2 cents....never played anything else....actually ordered the KM140 (I'm poor) but it was out of stock, and The Mandolin Hut was nice enough to send me the 150 for nothing additional.
