Got my Anders guitar too! (photo)

Peg-head blanca, Canadian cypress back and sides, ebony faceplate and bindings. I brought the AA spruce down from the UK with me, which had been stored for several years.

Very new, very bright, very loud and easy to play. Anders understood my requirements for a clean, pale blanca with lots of contrast then added his own interpretation.

He talked me into the pegs which are really fun and not at all daunting. They are quick to adjust and stay in tune.

More photos, and an audio (when its relaxed a bit) to follow.

New guitars smell wonderful, mine smelt of dope and hippy oil until it was polished.

Simon. You have to leave that guitar with me for a couple of days.

I normally stay with a guitar for a week or so to make sure adjustment is right, but also because then I can play it for a while and get to know how my work is.
