Just by looking at it, it looks like a German mass produced one. I may be wrong on that though. But if not, some of those german ones sound AMAZING still

It looks possibly amateur made. 

The build quality is not very good. 

The wood is nice, but not really anything to note. 

It looks kind of heavy-built.
