I have a 2015 1A I bought new from Anders that I regretfully need to sell. I can't find any recent sales of his guitars anywhere and I don't know any trustworthy appraisers in my area. $4500 seems fair, but I don't want to lowball myself
Does anyone have info of any sales in the last year or so?

Not last year, but 2 years ago one A1 from 2006 sold on Reverb. You can easily search it on google and see the price. I think it was a steal at that price though
RE: Anders Eliasson peghead blanca (in reply to DavRom)
Guessing there are a few here on the Foro that might be Interested?
How about a few photos?
General condition?
Where are you located? Spain?
What number is it? (Did Anders number his guitars?)
I’ve always wanted one myself and might for the right price only I’m in the USA…

I prefer my flamenco guitar spicy, doesn't have to be fast, should have some meat on the bones, can be raw or well done, as long as it doesn't sound like it's turning green on an elevator floor.

A very respected European flamenco guitar shop is selling one for 2400 euro. I like the guitars made by Anders yet nowadays many 2nd hand flamenco guitars made by a luthier could be bought in the range between 2000-3000 euro.
As far as I remember, he only had one standard Model with no mention of any specific model on Label which was basically his "A1" and only if he sold a "Segundo", he wrote it on label, like this one (this one was sold for around 1400 Euros used on Reverb). This was also a steal, as "Segundo" in his case was probably just some small visual details, not the built quality and everything was still 100% hand made by him as far as I know. What a joke of a price as I regurarly see chinese factory flamencos being sold for $500,$600, $700 with a spanish label on them.

This must be 1a, Anders used tis headstock also for his 1a too
@ Arash,
Anders is back to Danmark, he stopped making guitars and stopped making boats. As far as I know he is a school teacher now, but my info is also from a few years ago

Thanks for the update. Hope he is well and is enjoying teaching. I always enjoyed his honest , no BS and direct approach to everything. I can imagine him being a very good teacher, unless as a student you annoy him too much

Yeah agreed. I miss him here too. I was always sad when he said he'd stopped making guitars as he was one of the 1st luthiers I (virtually) met and loved hearing his POV and talk of making guitars.
