5 of 5 Excellent instrument and excellent service September 17, 2023
Reviewer: Ben Roberts from Colorado Springs, CO United States  
I've been wanting a lute for decades, and finally decided to pull the proverbial trigger, not knowing what exactly to expect. This lute does not disappoint. The fit and finish are great. The tone is mellow and beautiful, and the customer service was great. If you are new to the lute (as I am), this is a wonderful instrument.
