For sale is Hinde MF-71. An absolutely wonderful sounding and playing mandolin from a marvelous builder. I'm the original purchaser of the instrument, and am fortunate to have several great instruments, and this simply isn't getting enough playing time to justify keeping. If you like Nick Dumas's tone, you're in for a treat with this instrument. The instrument is in essentially "as new" shape.
