Hi Kozz, Geert here, also from the Netherlands. Would prefer writing Dutch, but will try in English. You won't believe it, but I too managed to get on Anders' waiting list. A dream come true!!! Only a few months ago I (re)'discovered' flamenco guitar at the Frankfurter Musikmesse in april. I bought a used one and started to learn myself flamenco guitar with the help of online lessons. I found lots of information on the internet, I found this forum, and then....I found Anders Eliasson. Few weeks later I received his video El Guitarrero, and after watching it I knew what I wanted.....a Anders Eliasson guitar. I contacted him, and after some emails he put me on his february building list. So I guess our guitars will be sisters...haha And now the best of all...please sit down. In october I go to the south of Portugal for a holiday. From there it is only a few hours drive with my rental car to Anders, who invited me to visit his workshop. I guess your guitar no. 90 will be in its final stage, so I will see it be before you do. I really am looking forward to this visit, a dream come true! How do you get your new guitar to the Netherlands? I need some advice for when my guitar is finished. What is best to receive the guitar in one piece? By the way, I sold one of my steelstring guitars to be able to buy an Anders guitar and am gonna sell that used (but in excellent condition) flamenco guitar I am playing now. Best wishes to you all, Geert.
