Trinity College TM-250B Celtic Mandolin (Black Finish, Hardshell Case) Review
Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This is my second mandolin; I was looking for an intermediate instrument to replace my beginner Oscar Schmidt. This mandolin has an ok sound and is fun to play. The details are quite striking and I am pleased with it. The only caution is the bridge comes separate and not installed, but it's easy enough to install one's self. I did a quick Internet search on "install mandolin bridge" and found several videos and presentations on how to do it took me about an hour to get the intonation and tuning correct using an electronic tuner.
Update:
I have been playing this mandolin for a year now and my left hand is beat! the action is too stiff and after an hour of hard play, the fingers are screaming for a break. it does sound best with Martin light strings.

Trinity College TM-625 Celtic Octave Mandolin (Natural Finish, Hardshell Case) Review

(More customer reviews)You will find no lower price for this very nice high quality instrument. Strong mids with slightly subdued highs (no ice pick treble with this one) and you can alter the tone nicely with where you pick. The low G is a little weak and warbley. I suspect the string spacing at the nut or bridge may be a just a hair too close for the larger strings. Very nicely made instrument. Finish is excellent, no finish flaws of any kind. Very nice selection of woods. Excellent sustain and nice volume (it's not a cannon though). I suspect it will open up nicely over time. The tuners are very good, not great...just slighly too sensitive to tweaking. The neck is very comfortably sized with just the slightest fretboard radius. A slightly smaller radius and slighlty larger width going up the neck, and it would be perfect (for me). Only one thing bothered me...This came with no product documentation of any kind, just a tool for the truss rod.
