Tom Anderson Cobra S in Black WakesurfBlack and chrome. Think classic motorcycle, leather jacket, mirrored shades. Sleek high performance cars with rich leather seats. Tough, fast, edgy.
This Tom Anderson Cobra S is all that and more! With a smooth mahogany body and Satin neck in a 24 3/4" scale length it brings with it a warm, pronounced midrange tone. Now add a highly figured Quilt maple top that appears three dimensional in person and a Blackheart fingerboard for definition, clarity and punch with Matching black back and headstock and you have the basis for a truly superb instrument. The neck is 1 11/16" nut width with heavy stainless steel frets in an Even Taper back shape, Anderson's most popular neck shape. It's a neck built for gliding over the fingerboard with speed and finesse. The hardware is all chrome including locking tuners, vintage tremolo, knobs and nickel pickup covers. The HC1 and HC2+ delivers everything from warm clean and bright tones to searing, singing overdriven tones. The 5 way switch allows any combination of full humbucker to 'split' single tones, individually or in combination. This beauty is strung with Elixir 10-46 strings and includes the G&G Anderson hard shell case, strap and case candy. Serial number is 07-05-22N. It weighs only 7.1 lbs. |
Drop Top in Blue Wipeout Some of these beauties are really hard to photograph. It changes as you turn it in the light and catches all the reflections so look at all the photos and video to get a good representation. In person the depth changes giving it a three dimensional effect. Wipeout is like standing on the beach in shallow water looking down at the sand as it transitions into the richer blue depth. This guitar plays and sounds as good as it looks!
This is a Drop Top with a highly figured Quilt maple top on an Alder body finished in Blue Wipeout with matching blue back and custom Blue "A" logo on the headstock. The scale length is 25 1/2" adding a bit of snap and definition. The neck is maple shaped in a very comfortable Happy Medium back shape with satin finish, 1 11/16" nut width and Medium Jumbo stainless steel frets that let you glide over the fingerboard! It features SC1, SC1 neck and middle pickups for those silent single tones and an HC2+ bridge pickup for rich full sounds to creamy searing tones when overdriven. You can easily switch from those classic 'straty ' tones to a fat humbucker tone. The 5 way switch allows access to all the combinations of full humbucker or split tones. The vintage tremolo, knobs, trem bar and locking tuners are chrome with white single covers and a nickel humbucker cover. It includes the Anderson G&G hard shell case, paperwork and all the case candy. This one is strung with Elixir .009-.046 strings. Serial number is 10-23-22P. It weighs only 7.2lbs! Well this lasted only one day!! |

|
Only the third Tom Anderson guitar that we've received this year that is available for sale. Most of our customers enjoy designing their dream Anderson and are willing to wait for delivery (which can take up to 6 months. But many like to get it in their hands and play it before they take it home and here is your chance.
Talk about cool and silky smooth check out this striking Tom Anderson T Classic in Satin Ice Blue. The body is a contoured alder T shape with Anderson's patented "A wedgie" neck joint and the distinctive 2 strap buttons. The neck is maple in a classic 25 1/2 scale length with 1 5/8" nut width and stainless steel Medium Jumbo frets. The neck shape is a 60s Vibe (think classic 60s T) with a full solid feel and satin smooth neck back. The hardware is chrome with locking tuners and vintage tremolo. The pickups are what some refer to as the "Nashville" configuration (one guitar that would do it all), TF1 in the neck and TF3 in the bridge for that authentic twang and bite but with an SC1 added to the middle position to give you that 'out of phase, quack S tone when you want it. Finally you have a master volume, master push/pull tone knobs and a 5 way switch to allow the player any combination of sounds you desire. It is strung with Elixir 9-46 and includes the Anderson G&G hardshell case. The serial number is 07-13-22P. It weighs a comfortable 7.4 lbs. |
Please note: "locking frets" is a secret code word that means "locking tuners" and "stainless steel frets." Now you know!

"Oh yeah.... it’s the best. I just love playing this guitar. Totally spoiled now. I want to thank my dealer, Kevin Fallon, who was so gracious and helpful in narrowing my components. There is no one I would prefer when buying a guitar." Jay D.
Jay with his stunning Drop Top in Deep tobacco fade 
"I got it today! You were right, it is stunning! I love the reddish grain in the caramel maple neck, love everything about it. It plays perfectly. I'm glad they had already started carving the neck when I thought about changing the neck shape because it's great as it is. Thanks for your friendly and knowledgeable help! It's awesome, thank you so much." This is Talmadge's third Tom Anderson Its a Drop Top Classic in Arctic white with matching back and headstock and caramel maple neck. "My first Tom Anderson Classic replaced all my other guitars and became my go to guitar when I play in the orchestra pit. I wanted an exact copy but in Maui Kazowie with a maple neck and three SA pickups."
"I followed your suggestion and called Anderson with my question and I did get to speak directly to Tom, which was a real treat. " Anthony P. Here's a photo of Anthony's two beautiful Tom Anderson Drop Top Classics. |
"I wanted to express my deep appreciation of your expertise in guitars and specifically in Tom Anderson options that suit me best for my playing style. Your knowledge is unmatched. Also, your patience to work through so many options and changes I made is commendable. I love my guitar and credit for such a lovely build goes to you.
BIG THANK YOU!" Ravi M. Ravi with his new Lil Angel in Cajun red with matching headstock and back

- "I only put it down to sleep that's partially why it took so long to break out the camera and lighting and take these pics for you. Does your business have any social media presence on Instagram? I was going to post this myself and reference Deepwater guitars but can't find you on there. "
- Daniel M.
