I finally collected my new Starry Night Black Classic today and it almost defies description, its THAT good.
My old Drop Top is much lighter than my Strats but this thing is noticeably lighter than my Drop Top.
The new Floyd feels wonderful to use but because its recessed into the body, my right hand position is different and will take some getting used to.
Unfortunately I don't know how to post pics for you guys to see but its simply beautiful.

I chose the gig bag for this one because I never use hard cases and I will say , apart from my leather Reunion Blues bags, this is the best bag I've seen. Access are not available in the UK but I'd love to know if they make a 2 guitar bag because I'd be very interested in getting one.

Tom and team make outstanding guitars and the Wedgie heel is sheer genius.
Really really happy with my new Classic and can't wait to gig it this weekend.

C'mon! We've gotta see pics or it didn't happen :D

the easiest way is to set up a photobucket or imgur account (or similar photo hosting acct). Upload the pics to photobucket. On each individual picture there will be a table on the right side of the pic with several codes. Copy the IMG code and paste in your forum post. Hope this helps!.

Congrats on the new guitar!

Alder. Chocolate maple neck. Rosewood board. Even taper with heavy frets. Non fine tuning Floyd Rose. HF3, SF1, HF1 pickups.
Absolutely brilliant.
As the saying goes, I couldn't be happier if I was twins. Ha ha

Woah that sparkle rocks! The SF1 in the middle has a very nice touch. Black hardware too.

I got rid of those horrible Elixir strings today and fitted my regular Ernie Balls.
I've also raised the action as it was much lower than I prefer.

I'm just about to use it at a gig for the very 1st time.
Can't wait to play it through a nice loud rig instead of my little practice amp.

Just got back from the first gig with Vincent.
What an incredible guitar, there's not a single aspect of it that doesn't blow my mind.
My Drop Top has always been my number 1 but it definitely has competition now.
Anderson make the best guitars in the World in my humble opinion.
Not just beautiful to look at, inspirational to play.
