New Eliasson 2A Blanca 2000,-€ SOLD

This is number 102.
German spruce soundboard, Canadian cypress back and sides. The setup is 2.8mm 6th string at 12th fret with a little under 8mm stringheight over the soundboard at the bridge. The color on the pictures is a bit dark. The video is more correct.

And here´s a video:

I havent played for a year and i cant play more than 10 - 15 minuts before I get pain in my left hand middle finger, so the playing is mediocre. But thats what there is.
But its good enough to hear the voice and the potential of the guitar.

Very nice sounding guitar. How is it finished? Did you add color to the finish?
Thanks.

It sounds great!

Och! I love that contrast between the body and the neck!

Very good playing (considering your lack of practice) and the guitar sounds very interesting as well. It most certainly would attract my attention when selecting guitars in that price range (or above).

Looks very nice indeed.

Is it the first Canadian Cypress guitar you've built Anders?

How does it compare to Med Cypress?

Very nice guitar Anders.

I'm really satisfied with my 2A that you made for me at 2009.

Thanks everyone
I´ve made various guitar with Canadian Cypress and we´ve discussed the thing many times. Simons guitar in the "el guitarrero" documentary is with Canadian cypress. It makes a very light, fast and dry guitar with a little less high overtones and "ring" in the tone.

I can vouch for Canadian Cypress. It's dry, very light, responsive and ages very nicely.
