For more than a decade, renowned West Virginia luthier Andrew White has built an amazing reputation. Andrew has become well
known for his ability to successfully pair traditional and non-traditional elements such as fan frets and modified body shapes. Many of his personally handmade guitars now demand more than $10,000 per piece.
In his personal shop, Andrew builds only a handful of guitars each year. In an effort to bring his instruments to a larger audience, he partnered with a well respected Korean guitar manufacturer, Artec Sound Co. The result are instruments that are incredibly consistent in their voice and playability, making use of modern designs with an emphasis on high quality fit and finish.
Andrew and Artec have together created three body sizes including the Freja, Eos, and Cybele. Each of these models are also offered in a variety of different tone woods and options.
Over the years, Dream Guitars has consistently received requests from our fans to expand our offering to include quality instruments in the lower price range between $500 and $3,000. This year, Dream Guitars did just that by adding a handful of new, fine instruments within this range. Andrew White’s new line of quality manufactured guitars was a no-brainer to be included in this initial expansion.
“It was fate that when I saw Andrew at the Healdsburg Guitar Festival this year we were looking for great guitars in an entry level pricing and he has just launched his line. It is exactly the kind of guitar we were looking for, a modern design with serious tone and quality build. Our clients will love these!” – Paul Heumiller
“These Andrew White guitars have an incredibly consistent tone and playability. The neck feels good and seems to have a slightly
smaller string spacing than standard which makes it easier to reach those bigger stretches. The fit and finish is really nice and the woods are beautiful. ” – Al Petteway

I’ve know Andrew since before he built his first guitar. I acquired one of his hand made guitars about six years ago and it totally changed my style of guitar playing. It had a major impact on my musical life so it was without hesitation that I started playing the production model guitars. I am now on my second one in two years (I sold the first one to my brother) and it is the most durable, great sounding instrument that I’ve used for gigs. It looks great and has been extremely reliable. I’ve had a chance to play a lot of Andrew’s custom models and I’ve spent a lot of time in his shop playing the new models and the new production models have been consistently good instruments.
I LOVE my Andrew White guitar!!! I play a Cybele. The ease of play was what sold me. Live performance situations is where it truly shines. It’s my baby! Just play one and you’ll be hooked!
