 May 12, 2006 | Rigel Q200 Mandola
Now out and definitely worth the waiting, the new Rigel Q-200 Mandola (Q-Dola). It's everything we expected and more. Bold vibrant tone, the strident resonance of a professional mezzo-soprano opera singer. Neither tubby nor clubby, the fingerboard sports the comfort and playability both professional and serious amateurs have come to expect of a Rigel ax.
Often overlooked because if its superb Rigel acoustic qualities, what really grabbed us was the power and clarity when plugged into a good acoustic amp. This will be a monster "band" instrument in pop and "cerebral" folk music, as well as satisfying front porch picking instrument in the intimate quiet of a summer sunset.
Nice work, Pete Langdell!
