I'll bet that Loar is going to look and sound just as good. When I bought the Flatiron they didn't have anything cheaper that I liked the sound of. The F-types tend to have a bright ringing sound where the A-types seem to be smoother and more vocal. I wanted the loudest, ringingest mando I could find. Mine is a Festival, there is another level up, the Preformer. That one is fully bound and almost twice the price.
