Sound Pure's Take
Weight: 7.15 Lbs
This is one of the most stunning guitars I've ever seen in my life! Tom Anderson does it again with the insane combination of aesthetics and innovation that he is known for. Fast necks, perfect construction and tone versatility are a few words that come to mind. I don't think I've had this much fun since I got my first guitar from Sound Pure. The pickup configurations on an Anderson are always interesting to discover how they play with each other and always big, beautiful, and warm! If you've played an Anderson you know how good this thing feels, and if you haven't, I wouldn't wait another day if I were you!
From Tom Anderson Guitarworks
Before the introduction of the magnificent Drop Top in 1990, the number of "S" style guitars that had a maple top that was “dropped” to create a comfortable forearm contour was exactly zero.
As a result of this design, we've chosen a body top thickness of 3/16 of an inch, which actually enhances and enriches the sonic character of the instrument. The result is a guitar that not only plays effortlessly, is extremely comfortable, and sounds amazing but is so darn good looking that if you don't dress well it just may upstage you.
