Elevate your craft with a guitar built for perfection!

From Tom Anderson Guitarworks

Nowhere near a copycat of any kind, Icon lifts you on wings of unprecedented playability, tonality and resonance that are really astounding. Giant vintage tones resound beyond normal expectations and unlimited string bends abound—push ‘em as far as you can push—still ringing out. So truly satisfying to play! Yes, Icon is in production and it is magnificent. It is the no compromise vintage guitar. But Icon does it in a totally iconic way, and with no vintage compromises. Icon has the look but not the limited playability, so all the Anderson attributes are soundly intact with the vintage visual attractions of:

 

     • Full-sized S-style body silhouette

 

     • Top Jack

 

     • Three numbered knobs

 

     • One rear strap button

 

So you could say: Icon looks just right and plays just right. And almost every Anderson option is available, as long as it does not alter the time-honored look. Another interesting aspect of Icon is that many are ordered with Satin Finishes. We have the smoothest Satin finishes in all the colors. But if your preference is a shimmering shine we have all those wonderful Gloss colors as well. What is the one color that you have always imagined yourself holding? And what is the best part of dreams? It is the moment you awaken to find that reality now exceeds them.
