Sound Pure's Take
Experience the vibrant voice of this Anderson Icon Classic Shorty, a truly remarkable instrument crafted for discerning players. Dressed in a dazzling Dakota Red gloss finish, its alder body sings with resonant sustain, perfectly complemented by a smooth caramel maple neck and rosewood fingerboard. The comfortable '62 Pete neck shape, adorned with a custom cream logo, invites effortless playability, while Tall-Thin frets ensure every note rings clear. Featuring TV7, VA7.2, and PH2 pickups, this Icon Classic delivers a spectrum of tones, from sparkling cleans to potent growls. This isn't just a guitar; it's an investment in inspiring artistry, meticulously built to be supremely playable and an absolutely rock-solid instrument that will elevate your sound and style!
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.
