Please note this comment from the section of the Anderson website entitled "Tonal Reference":
"At this point, it is important to realize that your hands and the way you play also produce a unique tone. Very basically- your hands produce either a clear, articulate sound or a rich, thick sound. The clear, articulate sound might best be complemented by a wood tone that has a thick, rich midrange. Hands that have a rich, thick, smooth tone usually sound best with a wood that produces a clear and sparkling sound."
If this is true, it's important to understand what kind of sound your hands produce. How can you tell?
Do long, thin fingers produce the clear articulate sound? Do thicker fingers produce the rich, thick sound? And if so, should those with long thin fingers look for Cobras, and those with thicker hands shop for Classics?
Any comments and advice would be welcome.
