Every time I pick up one of Tom Anderson's pristine guitars, I am amazed at how light and streamlined they feel, yet they always deliver all of the heft and punch that you could possibly want. This delicious Drop T is no exception and its Jack's Pacific Blue finish will wow you just as much as its playability. Even the back of this guitar is stunning to behold! I love the mellow smoothness of its chocolate maple neck and, as always, the comfortable body contours feel like they were made for me. You'll be amazed at the plethora of amazing tones that you can coax from this baby, its PH1 and HC2 pickups made all the more versatile by a 5-way selector and push/pull parallel switching in position three. Trust me when I say that this Drop T is amazing!  

Drop T is a:

Single cut away, "T" profile body with a gorgeous maple or exotic wood top that is swooped (or dropped) over the forearm contour to create very comfortable playing conditions and a beautiful look in one masterful move.

Non-pickguard styling

Angled control layout, without the use of a traditional “T” control plate (like an S-style)

25 1/2-inch scale length

Solid or Hollow

Of course, perfection of playing and sound abound.

All Anderson's awesome attributes soundly intact so you can get yours anyway you want it.

Often we are asked the question, "Which is the most versatile guitar?  What is the one guitar that will do all styles most easily?" 

Before we answer we must acknowledge that the prevailing thought is: there is not one guitar that can do it all.  And if you are trying to specifically specialize in different sounds, that may be true.

...but after all, this is...

Anderson Guitarworks

And so we would like to say with confidence:

For all around everything—for an instrument that can cop all styles and not force you to change guitars all night long—the most versatile guitar on Earth (made by anyone) is the:

Drop T and Hollow Drop T,

Equipping yours with a humbucker / single / humbucker pickup layout will most easily unlock this versatility.

There are quite a few reasons why Drop T has such an extreme range.

“T” body: when done properly, its overall shape offers a sonic signature that falls in a middle ground between S–shape and Bulldog—broader than S—more snap and pop than Bulldog.

Anderson H–series pickups have a broader bandwidth than most standard humbuckers so their single coil capabilities are vastly superior to the normal split humbucker, and of course their full humbucker sound is magnificent.

Anderson switching allows easy 5-Way or Switcheroo access to an almost uncountable amount of sounds while still utilizing easy-to-operate and familiar control.

Exotic wood-topped body adds a bit of dominance to the sonic presentation.

Choice of Mahogany or Alder body back will further incline your preferred style—slightly emphasizing mid-focused humbucker tones or wider single coil tones, respectively.  A Basswood body back will balance in the middle between the two sounds and Swamp Ash will bequeath open, delicate and airy musicality.

Solid or Hollow body chambers gives growl or smooth flowing sounds of the same nature.

And of course, all Anderson options are available so this guitar can be thoroughly yours.

If complete versatility is not your thing and you want the most elegant "T" guitar to deliver a more specialized sonic message, we merely need to equip this same guitar with a different electronic package and it can be as specialized as your needs require—so nice.
