    `In the White`.
    Hi all,

    Luthier Ken Ratcliffe from Kentucky has the El Fantasma ` in the White` mandolin complete, no color or varnish yet ,but Ken is kind ,at my request, to make this video that shows `El Fantasma`mandolin as Ken plays two tunes on it ` Shady Holler Waltz` ( tune his dad wrote) and `Misty`(Jazz standard). My warm voice of thank you to Ken for building the wonderful mandolin with the 150 year old Redwood top, and Maple back and sides.So with no further a-do here is Ken`s video: Enjoy!

    Thank you again Ken you remain always a marvelous craftsman.

    There is a Silverangel video showing two A styles being played in the white. I own one of them, but which one I'll never know.

    I strung my mandolin build in the white and played it month or so, but I then had to sand the dirt off prior to finishing.

    Those redwood top Silverangels sound good for sure, and play easily. You should like it.
