masters airbrush

You won't go wrong with Badger. They last for ever!

Ive got the G22 and to be totally honest, its not that bad. It was my first ever airbrush and didnt want to spend a lot of money learning how to use one and then be disappointed if I couldnt get the hang of it. I've since bought a couple of newer, higher dollar brushes since. My second brush I purchased was a Paasche Talon with .38 needle. I really like the way this brush works, and cleaning is much easier. The Master is okay, but cleaning can be a bit tricky putting it all back together. With the Talon I can get a lot better fine lines and detail and the pressure is easier to control. I've also purchased a Badger Krome; however, I have not received it yet so I cannot comment on its performance. All-in-all, if you are just learning, the Master isnt a bad way to go, but I can guarantee, you'll eventually want a better brush once you get the hang of how they work.

I've got 3 of them, E91,G22,and S68 that I bought as a package along with a Master compressor for less than 200.00 when I started. Eventually after tweaking all 3 give good service, each set up for specific tasks. They are Chinese knockoffs and there are probably more negative comments than positive but I must have lucked out. While you can buy tune-up kits for them I don't believe anyone will service them. Good luck.

what i'm looking at say's american but the price scare's me

Nup, they're made in China. Visually, they resemble those of "name brand" manufacturers, but the mechanisms are a little different.

Check these out, I believe Fengda OEM's for some of the low-cost companies. http://www.airbrush-fengda.co.uk/double-action-airbrush-pistols.html

like patrick said, mixed responses. I use an Iwata NEO and it is the cats meow and onlt about $40.00 from hobby lobby with the 40% off coupon. It is made for Iwata but has never given me trouble and does a great job. Just a suggestion.

I've not used one, but have read and heard they are generally considered "knock off" products, possibly made as copies of other brands, likely Asian.

Tales have been both good and bad, kind of pay your money and take your chance. Some folks have had great results, others say they're not worth taking home. Case by case I guess.

A good website to check out for detailed info is: Don's Airbrush. Plenty of good information regarding  types, brands and quality. That should give you enough to go on. 

For what it's worth, plenty of good quality, name brand airbrushes available through the dealers, I use mostly Badger, some Paasche and Iwata. Discount sale prices available at businesses like Chicago Airbrush, TCP Global, Coast Airbrush and Webair.
