something we knew for a while now - Anders being an outstanding Luthier - has now made its way to Germany's largest Flamenco supplier, Mundo Flamenco. I just received their newsletter and it says that from now on they sell Anders' instruments! Thats quite good news for Anders, but bad news for buyers i guess
Heres the mail: ----------------------------------------------------------------- Neu im Gitarrensortiment habe ich einen dänische Gitarrenbauer aus Granada. Anders Eliasson baut schöne Zypressengitarren mit einem sehr individuellen Sound, mit Schellackpolitur und das ganze für einen sehr moderaten Preis. 2990 Euro inclusive Koffer ist ein Top-Preis für diese Qualität. -----------------------------------------------------------------
RE: Anders being sold at mundo flamenco! (in reply to PacoPaella)
I would say its excellent news for Anders! Maybe Anders should try and get some other Flamenco companies to sell his guitars too. That way you can increase sales (as long as you can supply the product).
But the attention will surely increase demand, and when the demand exceeds the supply, its inevitable that the price rises. Either that or Anders will move his workshop to India!
It would be cool if Anders sent a guitar to Paco or Gerardo and managed to get them to play or endorse them... you'd be laughing all the way to the bank!
