Sound Pure's Take
Condition: Used, Mint
*Note the Serial: Tom made this guitar for himself!
This Raven Classic Shorty shows off a few never-before-seen features that we have fallen instantly in love with. The satin Dog Hair finish over the sleek White Limba body absolutely glows and pops with character. And for the first time ever a Black Heart fingerboard! Black Heart starts out as Purple Heart and is roasted to a deep, rich, figured black; taking on the visual quality of rosewood with the hardness and snap of ebony.

Your most profound offset style guitar dreams have become a reality. Now you can step on stage with the avant garde look of an offset and have the Anderson assurance that you are strapped into a unique instrument that will perform peerlessly in your hands.
Balanced, lightweight and stable, a joy to strap on and play all night long.
Not over-sized or undersized but a body of just right proportions. it immediately feels like your old, best friend, that is full of brand new excitement and experiences.
A solid foundation supports unparalleled tone and resonance, where every sonic nuance rings out with alacrity.
