USED Tom Anderson Drop Top HSH Natural Bora Burst

Description

This is a used Tom Anderson Drop Top custom guitar. The item pictured is the one you will receive. It has been tested and gone over by the experts at our shop. When a guitar is purchased from us it undergoes a final setup check before shipping to ensure it’s playing optimally. It is then packed with care and shipped to your door! (But please be aware that it may need slight tweaks upon arrival due to weather differences, jostling during shipping, etc.). Please read the description carefully and check over all photos for condition and wear. We do our best to describe all items as best as possible and note any wear we find, but please be considerate that it is a used piece and it won’t be perfect (Unless noted as “Mint Condition” or “10/10” for condition). If you have any questions about this or any other piece of gear we have, please let us know and we’ll be happy to help!

Condition Notes:

– Condition: 9.5/10

– Fret wear: None / Stainless steel!

– Any wear of note: This guitar is in near mint condition! There’s some very minimal, extremely light surface scratches on the back plate, but that’s really it. You may be able to find some very minimal, extremely light swirling in the clear coat (Very standard wear and to be expected from any used guitar. Can happen from simply being wiped/cleaned with a cloth) in certain spots if you’re going over it with a fine tooth comb and in the right lighting. But it’s honestly very clean and very near mint. Blatantly was well maintained with little play time!

– General notes: This Anderson really is something special. Aesthetically, it features truly beautiful and well chosen woods with a gorgeous finish to match. The fret work, fit and finish are utterly stunning, like on every Anderson! The neck profile is so comfortable and effortless, making it perfect for long gigs, studio use, really any application! And the pickups sound incredible. They’re really articulate and defined but handle gain so well. And the switching options make it even more versatile than an HSH guitar already is. Giving you the ability to split the Bridge and Neck pickups, as well as the option to use the Bridge and Neck pickup together just by pulling up on the Tone knob when in the 3rd position on the pickup switch. It’s really a beautiful guitar with every detail being as optimal and high performing as possible! You’re always in the right hands with an Anderson! (Please see note about back color below)

– Accessories included: Original hard-shell case, spec sheet, fret guard, tremolo arm, wrenches, sticker, strap and case key only.

**COLOR NOTE: Please note that the color of the back of the guitar in person is actually a really nice, vibrant and deep sort of aqua blue with a lovely greenish hue to it. The photos don’t do it justice. It’s just a difficult color to capture in photos and colors vary slightly depending on your screen (whether it be a phone, different monitors and computer screens).**
