Oh my, where to start...

Well, the good news is, it looks mildly decent, despite being mostly prims and sculpties, a few jagged prim seams that are excusable.

However, then it really falls apart due to... practically everything else. Considering the word 'medieval' was part of the shop name, and I'd heard good things about the hurdygurdy, I assumed the music that came with it would be medieval in theme. Well, one or two of the tunes can pass for it, the rest are, oddly enough, sounding more like banjo, and sometimes ukelele music (basically a *modern* dulcimer, not the hammered types of the time that sounded soft and almost half-harp-like) from the early 1860s Civil War and proceeding to later dates from there. It's 1930s country and western hoedown music for the most part, totally inappropriate from an actual fantasy/medieval standpoint. Some of the songs also include vocals, which means if you're not an actual singer and just want to play, then you are left to your own devices to explain the presence of said vocals.

Lastly, since the item is no-modify and didn't even include a resizer script, it's far too small for any of my avatars to properly hold, it ends up looking like a weird umbrella or fishing spear in my hand.

The one saving feature is that it's transferable, so I can, at the least, give it away as a "prize" to someone with an avatar under 4 feet tall that may actually be able to walk with it looking like it's a functioning prop... :)
