" This being my second Mya Moe I knew I was getting perfection in playability and craftsmanship. The greatest part of getting a Mya Moe is when it arrives and you open the case. That's when you truly see the love and care that is put into your instruments. As always it's everything I expected and and so much more."

- Andrew S.
