when i received the banjo i was immediately worried, i knew it was one of the last two in stock so the chances of a problem were high. i was right. there was a deep gash in the inner box the width of the box. when i pulled the banjo out of that box it had a dent in the head, about the size of a dime. it came with no instructions on how to set up the bridge(i'm a first-timer and it would have been nice to learn from Saga instead of Banjohangout.org, the DVD shows you how to start tuning and playing but not setup) after i figured that out and started tuning a chip of plastic fell off of the fake mother-of-pearl fifth string tuner. even before i added superglue it was still functional and it sounds fine in spite of the dented head so i didn't bother sending it back. all in all its not a bad instrument ...

Seems like a good beginner mandolin. I had to put better strings on it first thing, but other than that i've been very happy with it.

First of all, 8th Street Music is extremely fast. I ordered this kit through Amazon.com, and the third party dealer was 8th Street Music. I ordered this thing on a Thursday morning, and it was on my doorstep Saturday! With regular shipping! There was absolutly no waiting to get started on this. It was packed very well. Nothing broken or chipped, all the pieces were there, and the instructions were helpful and informative. I really took my time painting it and cutting the headstock into a custom design. It took me a month to complete what with all the sanding, coating, resanding, extra color and clear coats, and polishing. Now you can put this guitar together right out of the box in about 30 minutes to an hour and have a working guitar, but who wants a plain old ... Read More

5.Cremona 1/16-Size Student Violin Outfit with Free Celebration of Classical Music CD from: Saga

What a total waste of money. I must be a total moron to think I could get a violin that actually works - let alone sounds like anything - for this price. Stick with brand names like Eastman or William Lewis. Why doom your child from the start???

I decided after reading about these guitars on the net, to try and build my own. (go to guitarattack for examples) Not the highest quality guitar but more than suitable as a starter build. The neck is in great shape, the frets are smooth and well seated. The body does have the worlds strongest sanding sealer on it. I sanded the sealer down so that it wasn't that thick. There were a few bubbles under the sealer that I had to fill after sanding it down. The body itself was three pieces of basswood glued together. I've read others claim 5 or 6 pieces on theirs but mine had 3. by the way don't be afraid of basswood, alot of $500 and $600 guitars use this wood. At the time of writing this I haven't fully built the guitar so I can't comment of sound and the electronics. I did a dry fit and all the holes lined ... Read More
