Mine is the right colour, but it's a Viking I.

I liked mine a lot once I had the neck joint/top issue fixed. My only real gripes were that the neck was so freakishly tiny that my hands would cramp up after not too long while playing, and it didn't stay in tune all that well. It sounded exactly like the second video you posted, almost too bright and thin but not in a bad way.
