Looks great Kozz and Anders! I get the feeling this guitar is really going to sing

My instructor told me that having too many guitars is actually a hindrance to progress as no guitar can be a perfect replica of another so there is always some differences in tension, action and worst case is when scale and nut width are also changing. How do you guys manage to own so many guitars, play them all and not have problems readjusting to each guitar? Or is this just collecting guitars as a hobby but playing one favourite and keeping everything else in showcases?

Or is this just collecting guitars as a hobby but playing one favourite and keeping everything else in showcases? It's enjoying being on road. Start with a cheap guitar to find out if I liked it (had no guitar experience at all). Upgrade to a new guitar, made a mistake, look further, make another "mistake", sell some guitars etc. I didn't feel hindered at all by all those different sizes and shapes, in the end it is all about muscle control. We seem to be doing pretty will sitting on all kind of different devices, a chair, a bike etc. and your muscles need to adjust for that also. Personally I like to experience "mistakes" myself instead of being told not to do such things. Who on earth would buy a guitar from a boat building Swedish guy, living in the south of spain, without even having touched one of his guitars? Its against all advises.[:D]

If you can switch between all your guitar collection with ease and immediately vary your attack to get the same sound and tones from each one then you must be an amazing player.

For the moment I still believe the human body is capable of doing things much more complicated as flamenco guitar playing. quote: If you can switch between all your guitar collection with ease and immediately vary your attack to get the same sound and tones from each one then you must be an amazing player. I did not say such thing and I am not an amazing guitar player. Just not hindered, but rather seeing it as another experience.

quote: My instructor told me that having too many guitars is actually a hindrance to progress I think your instructor is wrong! I know many guitarists that have at least ten guitars and none of them have problems!. I've got four, one of at least 35 years old, a Ramirez FL2, a classical made by a young Italian luthier and a beautiful flamenco blanca made by Anders, (I play all of them - more the blanca by Anders!) …. And now I am waiting for a new Anders flamenco negra!. .... the real problem is that if you have the fortune to play a guitar made by Anders you would like to have MORE and MORE guitars made by Him! :-) True!...... The real BIG problem is the money! so the negra will be my last guitar! ciao Giambattista

To adjust i just pick a guitar up and start playing. It usually takes about half an hour to start to feel comfortable. But this still applies even if i always play the same guitar. The fun in having more than one guitar is that each guitar can produce sounds that the other ones can't. That's the reason i have more than one.

hey people, the guitars sound great, can anyone tell me why there is a (second) hole in the guitar? greets

Anders Eliasson -> RE: One two three four, and number five in a half a year (Nov. 3 2011 16:23:40)
The second hole is called a soundport. It works like a monitor. You hear yourself louder and the sound gets a kind of fuller stereo feel. Its especially good when you play in loud environments, but it also make playing your guitar at home solo nicer. My own guitars will always have soundports, but I do make guitars without soundports.

Put one in the case, or on the stand. Pick up one of the other guitars and play it ... If you own several this becomes something that requires no adjustment. The longer you play as well, it becomes even less a problem. Regards, Jeff quote: How do you guys manage to own so many guitars, play them all and not have problems readjusting to each guitar?
