Sound Pure's Take
The Anderson Classic S Shorty Hollow is a beautifully refined S-style that blends airy resonance with effortless playability. Its swamp ash top over an alder body adds lively snap and openness, while the short 24 3/4" scale gives it a smooth, slinky feel that invites expressive playing. The trio of VA7 pickups delivers clear, dynamic tones with warmth, sparkle, and excellent balance across positions. A caramel maple neck with a rosewood fingerboard and 62 Pete profile offers a comfortable, natural grip. Finished in translucent white with binding, it carries a clean, elegant look with a touch of vintage charm that feels instantly inspiring!
From Tom Anderson Guitarworks
When something remains as an unrealized dream for long enough it becomes a fantasy. A fantasy is the belief that there is no such thing in the real world. This is a mindset that surrounds the legend of the "vintage guitar." That it is unobtainable.
That you cannot have a vintage instrument that will play like lightning, sing like angels and be reasonably priced. But when we look deeply, we see that this is a mistaken perception and once perception is corrected, bliss returns. Bliss is restored to the musical world in the form of: The Classic.
The Classic is the vintage guitar of your wildest dreams, and beyond, the one you always knew should exist but you were unable to touch in physical form, until now.
