This is a mid-grade Enamando-rin model that has become highly sought after since the company went out of business. Recommended for those in music clubs or those who want to start a hobby with a step-up instrument. By the way, the model number 800 directly reflects the price, with a pre-COVID list price of 80,000 yen (excluding tax). About the product: This is a mid-grade mandolin from the lineup of Sound Ena, which unfortunately closed down. Similar specifications from other companies would cost around 150,000 yen, making this a very cost-effective instrument. It was manufactured by Ena Gakki, a long-established company, just like the high-end Japanese Shimada Mandolin. The manufacturing year is unknown, but based on the usage, I estimate it to be within the last 10 years. About the sound: I feel it has a balanced tone that blends well with ensembles, with a strong mid-range. About the condition: While there are some minor scratches due to age and use, the playability is in the best condition, and I think it can be considered a beautiful item. The string height is approximately 1mm or less at the 1st fret and about 2.9mm at the 12th fret. The neck joint and pegs, which are prone to damage, have not deteriorated in precision, and the frets have about 80% life remaining. Please check the photos for details. The wood has been thickened within a range that does not affect the sound, and due to technological advancements, it is dramatically more resistant to neck warping, twisting, and body cracking. Therefore, it can still be used for a long time. Accessories: Hard case Shipping: It will be shipped via Yamato Transport, with bubble wrap over the hard case. Remarks: It will be cleaned before shipping. Please consider carefully after looking at the photos, as there may be oversights regarding scratches. Also, please refrain from purchasing if you are looking for shop-level precision or are overly sensitive. #Mandolin #mandolin #Suzuki #Ena
