This breathtaking celestial phenomenon where light and color conspire to create something that simply defies explanation. Flame maple over basswood is a combination Clint at Interstellar Guitars calls a painter's palette for tone, and that description couldn't be more accurate: the basswood body provides a beautifully balanced, neutral canvas — even response across every frequency, nothing exaggerated, nothing missing — while the flame maple top contributes articulation, clarity, and that shimmering visual dimension that makes the Natural Purple finish so spectacular. Seen through a transparent purple tint with a matching back, the flame figure catches the light and shifts with every angle like a living thing, part guitar and part phenomenon. At a featherweight 6 lbs. 14 oz., this Angel practically floats under the strap, making it as effortless to wear as it is to play across the full 25.5" Fender scale length.

The pickup architecture on this Angel covers the full tonal spectrum without compromise. Anderson's H1- humbucker at the neck delivers warm, full-bodied leads and rhythm tones with just enough output to stay musical without overwhelming, while the VA7 single coil in the middle brings that glassy, articulate clarity that only a well-wound single coil can produce. The H2+ at the bridge provides the focused punch and harmonic complexity needed for everything from clean picking to high-gain riffing. The 5-way switching opens up a galaxy of combinations — including position 3's M+N+B with splitter for hum-canceling blended tones — all governed through black hardware and PU rings that keep the aesthetic sharp and cohesive. A Baby Floyd tremolo handles vibrato duties with stability and precision, locking tuners keep everything in tune through any maneuver, and Lumenlay side dots ensure you never lose your place on a dark stage anywhere in the universe.
