The Calhoun 2.0 Mandolin
The Calhoun 2.0 Mandolin
from $1,295.00
After a long hiatus, as our efforts in Michigan have switched to the newest items, the Calhoun makes a comeback from its journey around the world.
We’ve been off making mandolin players in other places (read here for more details), but we felt it was time to share this connection with all of you, albeit in a rather limited way. We are pleased to make an improved version of the instrument available. The Calhoun has now been upgraded to feature higher-end materials and finishing. Made right alongside our S, Big Mon, and Artist level mandolins with select materials from the same trusted sources, we are privileged enough to use for all of our instruments.
Offered in a couple of finish color combinations, equipped with great hardware, and complete with a quality gig bag, The Calhoun (2.0) is as likely a tool for a seasoned musician as it is a wonderful companion for any aspiring student.
Glad to have them back in the lineup (in limited quantities).
