Description
High praise is due to an instrument that inspires creative expression, allowing the player to reach new heights while not dictating a particular stylistic path. Such is the magic that Michael Heiden has conjured up with this Natural finish A model. With its uncommonly warm, woody, clear, inviting tone, and easy playability— hallmarks of Heiden instruments—discerning mandolinists across a wide ranges of musical tastes will find a lot to love here.
Standard appointments include varnish finish, top and back binding, and the Heiden logo inlaid in mother of pearl on an unbound headstock. A blank, radiused fingerboard and adjustable bridge in ebony complete a very lovely, streamlined, modern-classic aesthetic. Outfitted with a K&K pickup, this instrument comes to us used, in very good condition overall, and is priced with Calton case.
