Mandolin??

Hey guys what would be a good mandolin to buy to start out on? I have played the guitar for a long time and i really am getting into blue grass music. Yeah Nickel Creek is awesome. So what is the best bang for the buck mandolin out there. I have a limit of about $750 dollars and want a really good one that will last. THanks for the help.

I've been very happy with my Michael Kelly Dragonfly. It is my first mando, and I have been playing guitars for >30 years now.

I second this sentiment.

I have a Johnson mandolin. It was cheap but gets the job done. That Michale Kelly one looks pretty good.
