Andy Culpepper #15 for sale

This is a brand new cedar top blanca.. you may have seen it on my blog but I wanted to post it here too.
The "extra side purflings" are just decoration.

Western red cedar top, Canadian Cypress back and sides, Schaller tuners. Handmade everything, French Polish finish. The action is 3.0 mm straight across and I can always adjust that for you before I send the guitar. Same with string spacing at the nut which is currently 45.5.

Here is a video but I will be making a new sound sample soon. Over the month or so I've had this guitar I've noticed it open up quite a bit from just playing it a few times. It has really good volume and projection, and a strong clear sound with some good rasp in the bass.

ASKING $1,600.

Beautiful guitar Andy. I love it. The rosette is beautiful and I like the whole look with the darker bindings.
Beautiful. Good work.

Wow, thats a super rosette!
And although i dont like cedar sound in general, i like it in this guitar. Your guitars have a great value/price ratio. If i was starting out again i would directly buy one of your guitars and skip all the low-end or intermediate factory guitars.

Thank you Deniz. My guitars keep getting better but I keep the prices low on non-orders just because I like getting them out there to people.

Here is another little audio sample:

Certainly a handsome guitar. For 2000 it looks and sounds like a steal.
Does want.

This guitar is still available. I will take $1800 for it. This includes a TKL archtop hardshell case and free shipping within the US.

Wow that does sound like a ridiculous deal. I'd be on it but I have my heart set on a spruce top

Great sound Andy! I'm normally a spruce man myself, but this guitar seems to have good clarity. Great job Man! You are going on my list of "I need a guitar from this guy too!"
