I just received a much anticipated Distressed F from Ken Ratcliff. I had ordered one without ever holding or playing a Silver Angel, but I received so much positive feedback from present owners, I felt I could not go wrong.
It joins Weber Fern and MT2V at home and does not take a back seat to either.....in fact,
it seems to have more projection than those two at the two jams I have taken it to in the last week.....the tone and playability are also off the charts.
I will report back later when I have had more than a week to get to know her.
Top wood is European spruce, 230 year old wood for the x-bracing, and the back is Kentucky red maple.
Ken is truly a craftsman and a pleasure to do business with.
