New member and new used Tom Anderson owner

[WilliamG]

I recently became very interested in Tom Anderson guitars. A famous guitar store in Nashville currently has several on consignment from what undoubtedly was a guitarist with excellent taste. I was visiting Nashville and spent a lot of time with the instruments. Returned a few weeks later, spent more time, and brought a Hollow Atom home.

The pictures aren't great, but I wanted to post. So nighttime and poor lighting is what we have. I had always known these were great guitars, but had never dared try them. I am glad I cleared the hurdle. Once I did, though, I was bitten. I have since sold two other guitars to make room for Andersons. This Atom will not be the last as I have put in an order for a Crowdster Plus 2.

I look forward to participating in the forum.

Welcome and nice Atom. I'm pretty sure an Atom CT will be my next any if I can resist the pull of the Icon classic. Already have a Crowdster +2, a Hollow S and Hollow T.

Will be in Nashville next week and hope to have time to stop by the famous guitar place. Been there 6 times in the past 2 yrs and have yet to be able to make it in there.

Truly gorgeous. I love those. And hollow. Just like I love 'em... Congrats and welcome.

[WilliamG]

Thanks for the welcome.
CoKid - don't go back to Nashville and not go to Gruhns. Their new location is great. You can lose yourself in there. These days there are several great guitar shops in a small radius around 8th and 12th Avenues. Much fun.
Pietro -- Since becoming enamored with TAGs, I have read many of your postings and reviewed your videos. I had a T-5 for about 11 years. I sold it just recently in order to pursue the Crowdster. I am looking forward to it.
Thanks again.
I will be lurking around.

You getting the Crowdster or the Plus or Plus 2? Either way, if you're looking for a real acoustic guitar experience in an amazing form factor, you will NOT be disappointed methinks.

and if there's any way I can help, I'm always here.

Sorry, Crowdster Plus2. Arctic Blue Burst, matching headstock, natural back and neck. :)

Can't wait to see/hear it!

Beautiful Atom!! And welcome to the forum! I'll have to stop in the new location the next time I'm in Nashville, I didn't realize they have moved.

As you can see from my avatar, I'm pretty fond of my Arctic blue burst Crowdster+ Can't wait to see your next acquisition :cool:

[WilliamG]

Gruhn sold downtown and moved to 8th Avenue a few years ago. I miss them not being by the Ryman, but it is a much better environment.

[CoKid]

Visited Gruhn's and enjoyed it. Wish i could have take the Bulldog home with me.
Played my Crowdster at the Bluebird (backing up my wife) tonight. On my way back home in the morning. Looks like we'll be back in June.

I'm about to pull the trigger on a Hollow Atom w/ 3M's. Tell us all about the tone on yours. Trying to decide on the M3 bridge or H2+.
