50's Silvertone
This is a real nice sounding and playing archtop guitar. Cosmetically
this guitar is just ok. Structurally it is perfect and wow!!!
what a sound. Certain instruments just have a feel that is
divinely given. You have to play a lot of guitars to find one
like this.
The notes jump off the fret board when you play it. The strings
feel like springs under your fingers. There is not a dead spot
on the instrument. The whole back vibrates against your chest
The only other guitar that I own that has this same feel is
my electric Lang. Isn't it humbling to realize that a little
mass produced Silvertone guitar has the same feel to me as
a rare handmade Lang guitar. It may be just me and how I see
and feel things but it is real to me so that is good enough.
This guitar is not for sale.
