Please watch and see how amazing is the sound of this Reyes...Watch it quickly cause I think they will remove it for copyrights reasons....
Paco Serrano.

Sweet. May I offer my Anders blanca. Built by Anders, played by Anders and composed by Anders. No post-production on the sound. It's a frickin' canon.
This is the theme of "El Guitarrero" complete with bird song, and it still gives me goosebumps.

Escribano, your guitar sounds excellent but I hope you don't imply that it is similar to the Reyes you heard in the Serrano's vid, do you?
It is very hard to find guitars in the flamenco world that match the trebles of Reyes or a true Gerundino....You might see and hear a lot of flamenco guitars with heavy bass but getting those trebles sing like Reyes does, is very difficult.

I really love that first falseta, which I think Anders made up himself.

I am too emotionally attached to be objective I am afraid. Anders as a worthy friend, the very special guitar we came up with together, the documentary we made that opened a new world to me and funds the forum to this day, this video recorded in my house and that buleria riff that I cannot get out of my head.
So yes, I do prefer my guitar, it is priceless for all those reasons. Something about the Serrano video reminded me of it. The energy, the resonance, the flamenco.
I actually don't like that sound on the Serrano vid... If I should choose upon these videos I'd surely prefer the Anders...
but I seriously think that one can NOT judge the sound of an acoustic instrument through a video, no matter how good it is...
The only sound that I liked, and somewhat felt like the guitar may have a realistic sound was in Gerardo's encuentro vid.

What? You're sellin your Anders?
Not yet. I was offering the video clip [;)] I'll upload something when I have cracked the buleria basics that I am working on when my workload allows. Trouble with my job is that I am commuting as many hours as some people work at the moment.

Hahaha, "Not yet", like in "Never" I suppose [:D] (I must admit, I do sometimes look at Anders homepage just for this guitar) I would love to see you playin!
Damn, are you serious about commuting? Are you a sales-person?

No, I work with enterprise customers on their IT strategies. I am charged out at up to £2000 per day, so you guess the pressure on me to demonstrate value in these difficult times, even after a 3 hour journey in and the same trip home[:'(]

Sounds like, normally, a nice job. Keeping customers satisfied nowadays must be hard. Probably the same as in my job (we provide Storage on Demand in shared enviroments). The customers demand more as ever before and want to pay less.
You must be good at your job than, if you're still around. At our place a lot of them get thrown out because the golden years are over, and now you have to work hard instead of just writing orders.
