That’s a great looking mandolin! I love that the neck & headstock aren’t bound - gives it an understated elegant look. The sunburst is gorgeous and beautifully done to complement the 2 point body....
That is a beautiful looking mandolin! I’m looking forward to hearing your impressions when you get it.
I think you’ll be very happy with the Kimble! I’m amazed that the Kimble at Greg Boyd’s is still there ~ it’s a wonderful sounding and playing mandolin at a great price. If I were in the market for...
I recently played a Collings A and an Ellis F side by side and I would have taken the Collings in a heartbeat. Much more fuller sounding than the Ellis.
I really like the look of the Pegasus case, but have never seen one in person. My son has a Canadian made Calton and it’s a workhorse that sees a lot of use. Great protection and provides peace of...
I kinda like this one :)

Believe what you are experiencing and don’t rely on what others tell you on the internet. It seems to be a common thread in society these days where you’re told not to believe what you see, think,...
Sending good thoughts your way and hope you get out soon!
Congrats on your mandolin journey and celebrate this milestone! I also just passed the 10 year mark and just celebrated 5 years with my mandolin. It took me 5 years to wear the frets down, so I...
I was looking through the pictures on my phone today and got to wondering ...
What is your favourite mandolin related picture that you took this year? Post them here!
We were very fortunate to...
Congratulations ~ I like vicariously through you
Great news on the tone of this particular mandolin. I’m still waiting to play an Ellis that will knock my socks off. They are good mandolins...
For a brand new mandolin, it sounds wonderful already. Some very nice picking as well!
At the other end, but just as nice https://www.mandolincafe.com/ads/146973#146973
We have a Kimble, Clark, and Heiden in our house. They are all wonderful mandolins and are keepers. I would heartily recommend all 3 of them. As is the case, it’s alway best to try before you buy,...
I’m a sucker for nice A styles and that is a beautiful looking mandolin!
I’ve heard, and my son has played Adrian Gross’ Stiver, and it’s a really good one. His also has pinky wear like your F...
I love seeing different coloured instruments and this one has a lot of personality. Nick Dumas of Special Consensus plays a Hinde and it sounds great!
Enjoy your new mandolin in good health
John
If that thing sounds and plays as goods as it looks, you got yourself a keeper!
If your heart is set on a Nugget, I would reach out to him and hear what he has to say. He probably has a good idea where his instruments are and who might be looking to sell there’s. As you are...
Fatt-dad - yeah, I really like the Kimble oval. It’s been my only mandolin for the last 5 years and I’ve played it a lot ... hence the needed fret job. I think Will has only made a handful of oval...
I made an appointment with Michael Heiden to drop off my mandolin for a refret on Aug 19th and would pick it up a week later. From there, my youngest son and I did some road tripping around BC and...
My son recently got a few decent videos and thought I’d give you all an update on F128 in a couple of different genres ...

Nice - is your Heiden getting a new playmate?
All around awesomeness!
