Sound Pure's Take

Condition: Used, Excellent

SP Luthier Notes: Some of the frets were coming out of the fretboard, and our luthier reseated them and glued them into place. All of the frets were polished, recrowned and leveled. The truss rod and bridge were fully adjusted. No further work was required.

Immerse yourself in the captivating charm of the Cobra S, a guitar that's not just an instrument, but a sonic adventure waiting to unfold! Its stunning Flame Maple top on Okoume body, finished in a vibrant Teal WakeSurf with Binding, promises a visual feast, while the transparent light brown back adds a touch of classic elegance. This isn't merely a purchase; it's an investment in unparalleled craftsmanship. Our expert luthier meticulously reseated, polished, recrowned, and leveled the frets, ensuring supremely playable perfection. With its Mahogany neck and Rosewood fingerboard, smooth Happy Medium back shape, and a pair of powerful PQ1 PQ3 pickups, this Cobra S is a truly unique specimen, rock solid and ready to roar. Experience the exquisite playability and rich, articulate tones of this magnificent machine—it absolutely sings!

 

From Tom Anderson Guitarworks

Cobra and Coba S have been an Anderson favorite for a long time now.  In 1996, Cobra S took its rightful place alongside the renown Cobra, to add the same Cobra crush to the "S" body style. Taking over the (musical) world with an "S" just got a lot easier. Cobra S is:Short Scale - 24 3/4-inch strings length. 

Focused mids, easier reaching and bending.Mahogany Construction: a powerful mahogany foundation of body and neck backs up all Cobra S has to say with midrange muscle.Sleek and svelte, non pickguard "S" delineation.

Twin P90s - other Anderson pickup options available as well. Simple and versatile switching to access all viable sounds available. Bridge - fully functional vintage-type tremolo or fixed bridge, both with string-through-the-body design for increased saddle tension, offering low-end vibrancy and a bit of a bite, tonally speaking.
