Tom Anderson Guitarworks is an American high-end guitar brand boasting the highest quality.
Known as a favorite of many artists, including Neal Schon, Richie Sambora, Michael Landau, Koichi Yabori, and DAITA, (names omitted).
Owner Tom Anderson, a former professional guitarist, has continually pursued better sound and playability throughout his career.
Based on that experience, he incorporates many of his ideas, using the finest woods and combining technology and craftsmanship to meticulously craft each guitar.
By limiting production numbers, we have achieved unparalleled quality through flawless quality control tailored to each individual guitar.
In terms of playability, the exquisite neck grip and low-action setting provide stress-free playability and comfort.
Neck warping is extremely minimal, and stainless steel frets, which are resistant to wear, ensure consistently excellent playability over the long term.
The guitar boasts a wide range of tonal variations, while possessing a familiar tone that suits a variety of musical styles.
This makes it suitable for a wide range of genres and occasions, from live performances to recordings.
Because he himself was a player, Tom Anderson guitars are always crafted with the guitarist in mind, making them truly the ultimate guitars made for guitarists.
This model is a Top T, based on a traditional single-cut guitar and packed with Tom Anderson's unique ideas.
The body top is made of quilted maple, the body back is made of mahogany, and the neck and fingerboard are made of maple, a distinctive combination typical of a custom guitar.
The Les Paul-like golden ratio of quilted maple top and mahogany back is complemented by the rigidity and fast attack of the maple neck, resulting in a tight, bright, and rich sound.
The top material is curved towards the edge of the body and applied in a sloping manner, combining a highly three-dimensional, luxurious look with excellent playability.
The Trans Amber color showcases the beautiful grain of the quilted maple, giving the guitar a modern and luxurious feel.
The neck grip is the most popular Even-Taper, the nut width is 1 11/16 inches, and the scale is long.
The fingerboard features a conical fingerboard shape, with a flatter radius from the low frets to the high frets.
The slight change in radius, from 12 to 14 inches, provides smooth playability in any position and achieves improved sustain despite the low action.
The neck joint uses Tom Anderson's original A-Wedge.
It is a bolt-on structure using two screws, but the trapezoidal shape of the body and neck increases the contact area, significantly reducing the possibility of misalignment.
The wider contact area also affects the sound.
The neck joint has a smooth heelless finish, improving playability in the high positions.
The subtle changes in the conical fingerboard and the unique joints are testament to the meticulous craftsmanship required for this guitar.
The frets are Tom Anderson's original stainless steel frets.
The fret size is Heavy, positioned between Jumbo and Medium-Jumbo.
They are characterized by their high durability and smooth touch, and despite being stainless steel, they are said to have acoustic characteristics very similar to those of nickel frets.
The pickups are an SA2R in the neck position, an SA2 in the middle position, and an H3+ in the bridge position.
All Tom Anderson pickups are originals, carefully manufactured in-house using machines manufactured in the 1950s.
The SA2R and SA2 are stacked pickups with slightly higher output than vintage single-coil pickups.
They are designed to produce a wide, clear sound while maintaining low noise.
The H3+ is a humbucker with a ceramic magnet, offering even more power than the popular H3, which offers excellent balance from low to high frequencies.
This guitar's sound is clear, has a wide range, and is well-balanced from low to high frequencies.
The tight, firm low-midrange and transparent high frequencies combine to create the ultimate modern sound.
Controls include a Switcheroo and Blower SW.
The Switcheroo allows you to turn each pickup on and off individually, and you can also choose to output them in series, split, or parallel.
This allows for a wide range of sound variations, such as turning all pickups on or a Telecaster-style neck and bridge combination.
The Blower SW instantly engages the Bridge position, regardless of the Switcheroo setting, allowing you to conveniently change tones with just one touch.
The bridge is a Sunken Floyd Rose Locking Tremolo.
This allows for dynamic arm movements while minimizing tuning drift.
Vibrato applied with the left hand adds a different nuance to the tone, ranging from delicate to passionate, further expanding the range of expression.
The tuning machines are locking.
The locking nut does not affect performance, but it also simplifies string changes and reduces string twist, a drawback of locking tremolos.
This is the ultimate high-end guitar, uncompromising in every respect.
With its sophisticated looks, superior playability, and superb tone, this is a guitar you can cherish for a lifetime.
This instrument undergoes rigorous inspection by TONIQ craftsmen before delivery.
