    Default Heritage Mandolin on Ebay

    1987 Heritage A model on Ebay.

    I haven't seen too many of these. Never one in person.

    I always wonder how many of these were actually made. All the A style models I've seen (and that hasn't been very many) could be the same one. A past thread is here.

    On a further examination I think the mandolin in the eBay auction is probably the same one in the old thread listed above.

    FWIW, only ever seen three or four Heritage guitars and that was all 20 - 25 years ago; never a mandolin.

    Well, then there is this one, an H-50 from a dealer in Japan. Heritage H-50 Mandolin. Only 23 left to go.
