Opinions on starter Mandolins
I have been looking at learning the mandolin for a while now and I think I am finally coming to the point were I have the time. The only problem to this is that I have nothing to play on yet and thats were I hope you CGR peeps can help me out at.

I am looking for a good, starter mandolin around the max price of $150 maybe $200. I have only really looked into this one so far.

All suggestions and advice are welcome.

My wife bought me this one for xmas, and despite having the name Rogue, it sounds pretty good unplugged....though the electronics aren't fantastic.

I had an Epiphone MM-30 that was an excellent instrument, I should have kept it but I needed the money when I upgraded to a more expensive F Style model.

My mom got me a Rogue for Christmas. It's a good starter. I bought an F-Style recently, a Johnson. I understand that the Epiphone's are Very good.
