Hi,
I just unboxed my Freja 1023 BSB blue beauty! it is incredible! It sounds as beautiful as it looks. I had never heard a solid blackwood back/sided guitar. It has a nice warm, full tone in the midrange. I would definitely be interested in checking out the new creation when you have the photos ready. Thank you again for producing exceptionally beautiful looking and sounding instruments. My daughter has already laid claim to them if I don’t have them “put in the box” with me when I go!
Have a blessed weekend,
Jerry

I love the personal touch of Andrew Whaite’s customer service. I have had a many questions regarding the building of his guitars and every question has been answered within a day! Let’s see some of the big houses do that!

I’ve owned Martin, Taylor, Maton, and countless others in this list and because I’m a certified tech since 1972 and worked at guitar shops and music stores all over the US I think people who are saying it’s Martin, Taylor or nothing should do what I’ve done for the last however many yrs. from 72 til now don’t be so close minded and give some of the newer up and comers a fair chance. I once thought Martin was no. 1, then Taylor, and now I would definitely say the Tommy Emmanuel Maton and The Andrew White Guitars run neck and neck for first place and if you haven’t tried them please do! The Andrew White comes out ahead of Maton in my eyes because they have more outstanding models to choose from.

Just purchased a Freja, Beautiful tone and balance. Made in Korea but well worth the price. I’ll take an Andrew any day over the made in Mexico Martins at a similar price range. Well set up right out of the box and a joy to play
