Sound Pure's Take
Combining touches and combinations of covering the history of guitars, this Li'l Angel in a sultry Sweet & Sour Sauce Red V Burst is maybe more Li'l Devil! Tom's HF1 pickup in the neck is perfectly balanced and the HF3 has heat and power to spare.
From Tom Anderson Guitarworks
Angel - 24 frets of unparalleled playing performance, crowned and accentuated by a gorgeous maple, koa…top. And now: with either a 25 1/2-inch (traditional) scale length or shorter 24 3/4-inch—affectionately called Li’l Angel.
Angel is:
• 24 frets of super-fast playability.
• Gorgeous exotic wood-topped body.
• Unique Angel body silhouette for easy access to the upper most frets and beautifully balanced playability.
• Comfortably sculpted front and back contours.
• Angel - 25 1/2-inch scale length (traditional)
• Li’l Angel (pronounced Little Angel) shorter 24 3/4-inch scale length.
• Arc Angel - Li’l Angel specifically equipped with Mahogany body back and Mahogany neck back.
*(yes, just like Cobra T and Cobra S for the T & S families and Superbird for the Raven-family)
For those of you who know our guitar models well, think of Angel as a Drop Top with a full four-octave range—2 on the high E string.
But that is just the beginning.
24 frets: Completely designed and aligned to be a 24 fret "angel" of a guitar with unparalleled abilities. We gorgeously shaped and balanced the body to allow extended access to the upper frets, via deeper body cut-aways and longer horns.
Neck Playing Performance: As with all Anderson Guitars, Angel is endowed with the best playing guitar necks—Anderson’s legendary, super-fast and ultra-easy playability in a medley of back shapes. Easy to fly.
2 Scale Lengths: And just like our Drop Top, Angel is now available in two scale-lengths:
• Traditional 25 1/2-inch - Angel
• Shorty 24 3/4-inch - Li’l Angel
Both instruments specifically created and optimized for their particular scale length.
