This is the top-of-the-line model of the Enamando Mandolin, which has become incredibly rare after the company went out of business. This instrument has a dignified body with weather checking in various places and elegant decorations, making it a very beautiful piece. Recommended for those in club activities or those who want to start a hobby with a higher-grade instrument. By the way, the model number 200 directly reflects the price, and the original price before the pandemic was 200,000 yen (excluding tax). About the product: Unfortunately, this is the highest-grade mandolin in the lineup of Sound Ena, which is now closed. With the same specifications as other companies' products, it is superior in cost performance, costing over 400,000 yen. It was manufactured by Ena Gakki, a long-established company, just like the domestic high-end Shimada Mandolin. The manufacturing year is unknown, but I estimate it to be within the last 10 years based on the condition. The slightly thicker modern V-shaped neck offers outstanding playability, allowing for technical performances. There are cracks in the paint, known as weather checking, which often occur with thin lacquer finishes. However, combined with the exquisite curly maple, it has a magnificent appearance reminiscent of a veteran. Of course, it is easy to imagine that this is an instrument that resonates powerfully. About the sound: It has a large volume befitting a flagship model, a well-extended and pleasant high range, and a complete sound with depth. It is good for ensembles, but you will feel the quality of the sound more when playing solo. About the condition: Although there are minor scratches due to use and age, the playability is in the best condition, and I think it can be considered a beautiful item. The string height is approximately 1 mm at the 1st fret and 3 mm at the 12th fret. The neck joint and pegs, which are prone to damage, have not deteriorated in accuracy, and the frets have about 80% remaining. Please check the photos for details. The wood is also made thicker within a range that does not affect the sound, and due to technological advancements, it has become dramatically resistant to neck warping, twisting, and body cracking. Therefore, it can still be used for a long time. Accessories: Hard case About shipping: It will be shipped by Yamato Transport, with bubble wrap over the dedicated hard case. Remarks: It will be cleaned and shipped. There may be oversights of scratches, so please take a good look at the photos and consider your purchase. Also, please refrain from purchasing if you are looking for shop-level precision or are overly sensitive. #Mandolin #mandolin #Suzuki #Ena
