i bought a cheapy stagg one, which wasnt too bad, much better than the one in the video above. i learnt a handful of songs on it very quickly, but 8 years later i haven't learnt much more. I've used it live for the occasional song in the band and its a nice change. I think coming from guitar its not too hard to learn fairly quickly unlike a cello which I'm currently battling with.
