Guitar is flat out amazing. Killer killer killer guitar. Guitar has a lot of attack and snap, very resonant, great sustain. All that you can hope for in a guitar. I need to downsize my guitar gear. It's the best guitar I have (and that's saying a lot), but it's also my most expensive guitar, so it's up for sale. Some pick scratching here and there, but generally in wonderful shape. I always babied it because it cost me so much.

Just to note: I am the original owner. The original build had an all maple neck. Essentially immediately after I received the guitar, I sent the guitar back to Tom (who is AWESOME) and asked him to build the current neck (turns out I prefer rosewood fretboards). I do not have the all maple neck. All work was done at the Anderson shop and of course everything is awesome.

NO TRADES PLEASE. This is honestly kinda of a silly price. This price is for a local cash deal, but just pm me to work out something through PayPal and shipping.

Shipping: I totally don't mind shipping (done it plenty of times before), I just don't have a suitable box right now. If you want it shipped, let me know and we'll figure out how to get me the right box etc.

Pictures: this is a VERY difficult guitar to photograph. I've tried to represent the top as best I can, but it looks much better in person. I can provide more pictures on request, but again: keep in mind that the figuring in the top is difficult to capture with a camera.
