Heiden Artist F Cremona (2000)

Those who keep up with TME's mandolin offerings will surely, know, by now, how much we love and admire Michael Heiden's instruments. It is fun watching someone's reaction in store when they first play a Heiden: the sudden realization that mandolins can be that dynamic, that alluring, that rich sounding, that fun and engaging, and ultimately that rewarding to play. The sound is mature, open, and nuanced, impressively so, even by Heiden standards. This Artist F will take you wherever your muse leads.

This mandolin comes to us in excellent condition, having had just two owners to date, and well maintained over its first quarter century in the world.
