Michael Heiden's mandolins are among the finest ever made. Ever engaging, warm, three-dimensional voice, superb attention to detail, easy playability, and a singular responsiveness are hallmarks of his builds, and are all evident in this 25-year-old stunner.

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.
