How does one describe the feeling of opening a case, with your guitar, for the first time, from Tom Anderson Guitarworks? ....I cant. In Toms' words, "Its a beauty".
Classic Tobacco Burst, crazy light weight (like hollow T) Maaaaybe 6lbs, solid swamp, VA7's, push/pull tone, toggle boost, mint green gaurd w a tinted neck. I wish you could hear the tones.
Can my friends here relate?!

Perfectino!......... if that's a word. Looks like a 50's 2 tone burst. Interested in how the medium frets play...

The classic look has always grabbed me. I was torn b/t alder or swamp....looking for a bit fuller low end...the swamp won out. So, classic looks with modern Anderson appointments. It really doesn't get any better for me.
I'm a medium/Jumbo player as most of if not all my music is country, country/rock. Bends on the first frets are...interesting......and need taller wire to get my finger pads a good grip....and because I'm pretty retarded .....larger is mo better.

mediums are actually as tall as heavies. the narrower width does make them feel a little less bulky as you slide up the neck.

I've got a Classic exactly like yours, except with VA5's.

Yeah--something about that "traditional" look really appeals to me.

Have fun!
