A Fingerboard So Very Fast
/And easy to play. It is like we slathered it with olive oil.
We always say our guitars “play like butter,” and they do—fast and slick and easy. But even better than butter is a healthy olive oil alternative; a simile to elucidate the unparalleled speed and power of this outstanding Satin Transparent Dark Olive, Angel.
To accompany its unparalleled playful playability is a full complement of H1, SC1, H3 pickups laid out from neck to bridge to form a super-versatile Hum, Single, Hum pickup array; all controlled with a furiously fast and intuitively fun 5-Way switching system that easily establishes 9 beautifully useful sonic combinations.
Chocolate Maple neck back highlighted with a dark-figured Ziricote fingerboard is another healthy alternative, appearing here as our slim, Even-Taper neck back shape, crowned with lightning fast, slick and glistening, Stainless Steel, Jumbo Frets.
The gift of stainless steel frets done right: Because they last seemingly forever and are so smooth, it is like we polish your frets every night so each day your guitar plays with the speed of a brand new and ultra fluid feeling fret job. So very good.
A phenomenal Flame Maple top can be seen through the soft satin sheen of its Satin Transparent Dark Olive finish, while a foundational Swamp Ash body-back sonically supports this Angel’s artistic endeavors with an open and wide bandwidth.
Stealth and ominous Black hardware is highlighted by its “Baby Floyd” bridge—for controlled vintage-and-beyond type tremolo gymnastics. What we affectionately call the “Baby Floyd,” is a Floyd Rose bridge that does not have a locking nut or fine tuners. This is how they were originally—like the very first ones created. There has been a resurgence of their popularity, enjoying this bridge’s smaller footprint and ease of use with a regular nut.
Satin Transparent Dark Olive: A beautiful dusky custom color that makes its soft-satin-sheen statement with a glorious subtleness of deep and dark, rich olive green hues.
And speaking of making a statement, would you like to make us tell you where this Dark Olive Angel is now residing?
Well, you certainly may make us tell you that this one was made for, and specifically specced by, Make’n Music in Northfield, Illinois. No, we are not making that up! Make’n Music is just such a great store. When you reach out to them, you will not need to make them understand. They completely get it. Simply say that you and this Satin Transparent Dark Olive Angel were made for one another. After all, 5 fret bending and astoundingly beautiful tones are just some of the elevated Anderson attributes that make this Angel unparalleled.
Of this there is absolutely no doubt. Once you’ve played it, you’ll know for sure that you just can’t make this stuff up.
