All Heiden mandolins are custom-made, selecting from a wide range of wonderful, aged tonewoods to create a look and sound all your own — whether very traditional in design, elegance, and tone; still adhering to the tradition of tried-and-true design, but with a modern flair; or something more adventurous altogether.

The process begins with a lengthy discussion in which we cover all aspects in order to make the right instrument for you. Your playing style, expectations in a new instrument, size of your hands, etc. are all particulars necessary for me to understand in the creation of your lifetime instrument.

Pricing for Heiden mandolins depends on model, wood and hardware selection, and embellishments, and starts at:

• A model:  $7,000
• F model:  $12,000
