A standard Blanca

Hi

This is a standard Blanca with no extras and slightly yellow french polish. This is a design I like very much myself

Very nice, a classic, distinctive, 'Anders' - you know I fall for these every time

A new type of headstock?

Cheers, Andy.

Yes, there´s a new headstock, but I havent focussed on the head this time, because I have refined a bit more on the guitars I build now. It´s actuelly very difficult to come up with a headstock design which is simple, good looking and not a copy.

Hey Anders, have you ever sent a guitar to Canada? And if so, do you have any idea of what the duty fees are? I might be buying a guitar, maybe in a year... I'll find out when I have money to spare

Hi Doctor

I´ve never send a guitar to Canada, but will most probably do within half a year or so. I´ve send ti the US, but cant remember the duty. Some 7 or 8% of declared (and insured value)
Besides, I think its better that you find out, I´m a bit far away.... And I have nothing to do with Canadian import dutys

They actually laugh at us, because we are always read tanned. The sun is rough here. To rough, not just because of "tanning" but mostly because it drains your energy and burns the landscape.

Stephen, thanks for the nice words. I will see if I can join with Simon for a trip down to the tropical coast
