Hi from Fort Worth Texas !

[Smokehouse]

Hi everyone, got here as soon as I could :D

I have been a Tom Anderson owner since "11-11-88", when I received a brand new Grand Am in Honeyburst. Still have that great guitar though she needs a fret job for sure. Just made a deal on Stan's 3-Burst Classic, cant wait for that one !

Amp wise I keep it simple with a Germino Classic 45 head into a Germino 2x12 closed back Cab loaded with a G12H30 & Greenback. Tone to the Bone ;)

Looking forward to getting to know everyone !!

Cool vintage Andy you got there! Congrats for keeping it in such good condition for so long. I just sold my 09-06-90 which served me well from the day I got it way back in 1990.

Thanks :D

It really is a great guitar. I got it back when no one had really ever heard of a Anderson outside of Calif. ( At least not in Texas ;) ) I had contacted Phillip Kubicki who at the time was making custom guitars, but when I talked to him he just got out of making 6 strings and was just making basses. He told me to contact Tom Anderson and gave me his phone number, so I called Tom, told him what I was looking for and the rest is history. Tom even agreed to accept $1000 down and the rest as a COD payment with the option of sending it back if I wasn't happy, since I had never heard of his guitars before. How's that for making sure the customer is happy !! Having said that, I was extremely happy with the guitar and still am to this day! I plan on sending her back to them for a fret replacement but will never get rid of her !!
