Sounds great!

I've had my Anderson for 3 weeks now (first but probably not the last) and am still amazed at the quality of sound and workmanship this guitar has. I had very high expectations of what this guitar would be like after reading over many of the threads on this forum...had never seen one in person let alone played one. My expectations were exceded and every day find something unique or new about it. For me, the buzz usually wore off after about a week with any other past purchase but with the Anderson this isn't the case. It's just gotten better and still haven't found a bad sound with this guitar. Definitely the first Strat style guitar i've played with a humbucker which actually sounds right.

Anyway, I could go on and on ....I'm sure you'll love your guitar when you get it.

Congratulations, Chris. Sounds like your axe will be a stunner. Your love affair with Andersons is just beginning, if you're like the rest of us. Now for the waiting...

Chris,

I don't think I have ever seen a Drop Top with only 2 pickups. Sounds like a nice new toy to look forward to!:D
