My search is through... I'm the happy new owner of this gorgeous atom!

I love the finish and the top on this one... and I snagged it for a good deal on the evilbay (and even got it shipped to Canada in one piece!) There's some buzz on the E, A and D strings so I'll have to look at adjusting the truss rod or bridge a little bit, but that should be simple. A great match for my tiger's eye crowdster too! Forgive me for the photographs, they were the best I could do right now! She really looks like this: http://andersonguitars.com/cfPages/showSingleGuitarGallery.cfm?passedID=42&finishID=262&bodyWoodID=33

Thanks guys, she really is beautiful!

I know the search is never really over, but I'm hoping this will keep me occupied for a while.. and with our first kid on the way, I think it'll be a while before another guitar comes around.

Off to a jazz band rehearsal with her now, then playing some more rocking stuff on Sunday.. she really can cover the bases well!

I quickly forget that I didn't know what NGD meant a few months ago, and now I'm using it!

It means "New Gear Day" or "New Guitar Day". There's also NAD (amp) and NPD (pedal). I guess I've been hanging around these guitar forums too much!
