Lucky sod!! She's a beauty alright. I soooo have to get me one of those. Don't forget to let us here her the moment she arrives. Sorry, looked for more than two minutes. Man that finish is lush!

I am not rich either, far from it, infact chances are that you are better at saving than what I am .
But if I can do it anyone can, i gues the only question is how much do you want it. U can buy a cheaper one but u just gonna wanna replace it in a year or 2.
not that it is expensive for what it is, might as well take advantage of it before everyone is gonna want one

No i dont want to buy a cheaper one. I have a Sanchis Lopez Negra which is new at about 1400 Euros at the moment (price increased 200 Euros within the last year).
I am happy with it but i want to buy a good Blanca soon to cover all flamenco sounds and so far i heard only good comments about Anders Guitars and heard nice Audio examples.
Of course there are many good Guitars out there but why not buying from one of our friends here in the foro and have a good instrument at the same time? .....
About money....well there are so many things that i have to buy....an Amp....a new car....furnitures for my new flat ....a gift for my Girlfriends birthday ! .....and so on ....but i think i will be able to have the money 2gether soon for a new guitar
RE: Who wants to see something Beaut... (in reply to Florian)
Holy cow. What happens here. You didn´t tell me you were going to post this on the foro. Florian you bad boy
Well I made it for Florian. I wasn´t telling him it was almost finished, because I thought I would surprise him..... And a very nice surprise because the guitar is VERY nice
The best thing is that it´ll stay with me a couple of month???? so I can play it and open it up a bit.
Its a special guitar. Its my last Quentar guitar. It makes me totally melancholic. I´m not going to assembly more guitars here in my VERY small workshop on the 3rd floor. Some of you know it. The next ones will be assembled somewhere else. We are buying a house in Beas in the Huelva province (Andalucia) and Thats where I will assemble the next ones.
To the keen observer, the rosette has changed a bit. More firewood and less lines.

Beautiful!! I love that "all surfaces the same colour" (as I've said in the past). Great gloss on it too..is that lacquer or French Polish? Lovely guitar and I bet it will play well too...
Well Flo...I guess it was worth getting all these bottles chucked at you at the plant..eh?
Can't wait to hear you play it man!
cheers,
Ron

Florian you posted the photos before Anders had put your "trademark" on it. My sources got a hold of a photo of the finished product. Nice mittens man. Some of you may not know what the hell I'm talking about. It has to do with an old monkey with mittens thread.
