feadan

Feadan is Taran’s Archtop Bouzouki and was designed with accompaniment in mind. Whether in a session with guitar, fiddle and mandolin or alone with a set of Highland pipes, it holds its own. A focused mid range giving the cut in any situation.

Feadan’s steep sides rise close to the shores of Loch Reasort, the sea loch that cuts deep into the isles and separates Harris and Lewis. Vast plains of peat and heather stretch north while the immense cliffs of Stron Ulladale tower to Feadan’s East.
