    The 2009 A Heritage and 2015 F Artist. It's an iphone video so the sound quality is what it is. And my playing is what it is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=marN...ature=youtu.be

    First I want to say thanks Evan for taking the time to video your 2009 Heiden Heritage A and your 2015 Heiden F Artist mandolins. Both of the Heiden mandolins really sound great and they are both keepers!!! If you every get a weak moment for some crazy reason and decide to sell that Heiden F let me know because that would go really nice with my Heiden A Artist. Thanks Again Evan for the comparison..... well done!!!

    Thanks also, to pheffernan for embedded the video for our convenience...

    They both sound really great. Going to have to suit up and have a meeting of the minds so I can play the A.

    They both have the Heiden voice. The A5 has something a little extra--some special sauce to it. Congrats!

    Kritt Moore one of our Mandolin Café members wrote a great article in Fretboard Journal #46, pages 50-55 on Michael Heiden’s 45 years of building world class guitars and mandolins. As most of you know Michael’s current workshop is located in Creston Valley in British Columbia, Canada.

    So I went online the other day and order a Fretboard Journal #46 it was shipped December 4 and it finally arrived today (December 18) but it was worth the wait. If you don’t subscribe to Fretboard Journal and you appreciate Heiden instruments. I would highly recommend ordering Fretboard Journal #46 online and reading the article on Heiden mandolins. I want to say thanks Kritt for writing an excellent article and the beautiful photographs in the article.
