Comments	Ken is a truly gifted luthier. The workmanship, his choices, the clean lines, and the brilliant resonance of this instrument is truly magnificent. This guitar is a ringing resonant wench. The flat profile neck is fast and comfortable. The workmanship is truly exceptional. I played her for about an hour today, having to stop to take care of other business. I did not want to stop playing her. A very warm lyrical Spanish sound is evident in the instrument. The trebles are to die for, while the basses pound a beautiful tone to the room. This is a great instrument.
Sound Files	Whisler 17 - a brief medley of Valerie's Air and Samantha's Lullaby - straight recording leaving the mic on from beginning to end, no editing - 1db noise redux - Reverb level of 60 to relieve any dryness
