Culpepper Blanca $2500

Hey flamencos,
This is a unique blanca that I've been working on off and on for the last few months and just finished. As you can see the rosette is minimal and the headstock is different from my usual design. Also it has just rosewood bindings and no purflings.
The materials are all top quality and I'm really proud of the sound. It's a killer blanca no doubt, perfect for someone who wants a professional flamenco guitar for a reasonable price.

Top: Spruce
Back and sides: Spanish Cypress
Neck/fingerboard: Spanish Cedar/Ebony
Tuners: Gotoh
Finish: French polish
Scale length/nut width: 655/53 mm
Action: About 2.9 bass and 2.5 treble

It plays very smoothly.
Case and shipping are included, and you can return the guitar for any reason within 7 days (you pay return shipping).

WOW! That's sweet Andy! Really earthy powerful sound! I also like the minimal rosette, and for me the change in the headstock shape shows more refinement.
Congratulations, somebody will get a real gem.

The small rosette makes the guitar look so big.

I like it.

Thanks beno and Ramzi.
The guitar is up there with the best blancas I've made.
