Well, I promised a photo of my latest pegheads finished today. Here they are. Pegsy and Peggy. A blonde or a brown haired. Uff, difficult choice[8D] Images are resized automatically to a maximum width of 800px

And from the back. The color of the cypress is not correct. It's the same as on the front. I'm a lucky builder, not only do I build pegheads, but two at the same time and a blanca and a Braz Negra. Images are resized automatically to a maximum width of 800px

Anders, Is the negra going to our friend in Hong Kong? Pat

Very nice Anders! It looks like i can hear them allready! Especially I like the color of the rosets matching the "color tembre" negra and blanca. proficiat! Peter

Guest -> RE: Pegheads (Oct. 19 2005 20:54:40)
Pat, Yes it's the Hongkong guitar. Peter, the old artist has a good eye[:D] The thing is that the blanca has its rosette and the purfling natural colored and the rest of the guitar is orange. Just like on a Conde. The difference is that this is French Polish, and the Conde is industrial lacquer. I have no idea how my polisher does it, and I've never seen anyone else capable of doing so.

Beautiful guitars Anders, but that Brazillian Negra is just stunning.

Crows -> RE: Pegheads (Oct. 20 2005 6:03:23)
Anders, Delicious guitars. The back of the Negra is stunning. My blanca makes me happy, I feel like I have played her for years. One day a Negra, but first I have to buy a kitchen for Annette! All the best, Andy.

Guest -> RE: Pegheads (Oct. 20 2005 7:19:26)
Hi Andy Good to hear from you, and good to know you still like your blanca. I could do with a new kitchen (or house) as well. saludos

el ted -> RE: Pegheads (Oct. 20 2005 7:41:13)
Don't send them to Hong Kong, send them to me in Hull!

TANúñez -> RE: Pegheads (Oct. 28 2005 19:25:03)
Amazing Anders. You inspire me my friend.

Guest -> RE: Pegheads (Oct. 29 2005 8:25:07)
Hi Tom Long time no see. Good to hear from you. I hope hurricane seasen is not to rough on you, I know you live inland, but still windy??? A little photo for the inspiration. She's 1 week old, she's mine[:)], and she sings like she looks. Images are resized automatically to a maximum width of 800px

TANúñez -> RE: Pegheads (Oct. 29 2005 13:11:26)
Wow! she is beautiful. I am very curious to know how your finisher is able to apply the orange on the guitar and not the rosette by hand? I know how it's done with lacquer but French polish? I must find out. We just get the mild winds and some rain from the hurricanes since we are inland. Nothing too bad. Tornadoes are what we have to worry about here in this part of Texas but usually only during March, April and May.

Guest -> RE: Pegheads (Oct. 29 2005 16:02:43)
With respect of coloring the soundboard and not the rosette/purfling. I have no idea, but lots of respect on how its done. The guitar is only 10 days old, but it's really opening up. It can be tried here in my workshop (not for sale!!!! it's mine[8D])

stephen hill -> RE: Pegheads (Nov. 13 2005 13:05:08)
Hi Anders, Stephen hill here, nice to see some of your guitars! We have a mutual client, in the uk Gordon Staples, who has one of my negras from a few years back. I hear good reports about the one he got from you, perhaps he doesnt like mine anymore[&o] !!!!? would like to meet you one of these days when I am in spain next. saludables -stephen

Katy and I were married in San Angelo, Tom Green County, at Goodfellow Air Force Base when I was in the service. In December we will celebrate our 40th Wedding Anniversary. The manager of the Pasadena Apartments in San Angelo, where we lived, told us that a tornado had hit one block away. It destroyed steel reinforced buildings. She told us, “Don’t worry about tornadoes. We live in a “good brick building”! I envisioned bricks flying in all directions! [:)] By the way I do not think anyone had a basement in that area. Lots of memories! [:)]

Hi Stephen You´re welcome anytime you want. Just give me a call 958 485 118. My tlf etc, can also be found on my website. I've just uploaded a lot of new flamenco guitar photos. Last time I spoke to Gordon, he said he liked both guitars[;)]

pablus -> RE: Pegheads (Nov. 14 2005 12:52:39)
Hi Anders, Very nice photos, I just love this orange colour. You still have that bad link on your classical guitars, though. Regards Pawel

Guest -> RE: Pegheads (Nov. 14 2005 13:36:52)
Hola Anders I note (with approval [;)]) that the pegs on this guitar wind in the traditional manner, rather than all inwards as on your original design. Has living in Aldalucía made you more traditional or is it just a whim? Suerte Seán

frhout -> RE: Pegheads (Nov. 14 2005 14:53:53)
Anders, who is the guy in Hong Kong if it's not a secret?

Guest -> RE: Pegheads (Nov. 14 2005 19:00:46)
Pablus. Hm, I will have to look at that webpage. I just forget it. Sean, I think that living in Andalucia has made me less radical, also in designs. It just looks better this way, doesn't it? frhout, sorry, I never mention the names etc. of my clients. I leave it up to them. It's just business policy.

Gordon -> RE: Pegheads (Nov. 15 2005 19:39:59)
Stephen\Anders: Of my two guitars I do not have a favourite. They are very different instruments, each one a pleasure to play. Gordon

Guest -> RE: Pegheads (Nov. 15 2005 20:46:12)
Ole Gordon You are right. I have a Gerundino which I bought from the man for 200,000 ptas. Apparently it is now worth a lot of money. I have a Melero which I acquired in a swop. I doubt if it would fetch 2000 euros. I love them both. You could offer me 1,000,000 euros for either and walk away emptyhanded. Suerte Sean
