I also get to…
Play them.
And although I have played thousands, upon thousands, upon thousands of Anderson Guitars, they are always thrilling—each an every one. As if there is just so much goodness that you can’t hold it all in. You just have to play it again and again to re-experience that full Anderson Guitar joy and harmony.
There are few things in life that actually possess this elevated experiential quality, but Anderson Guitars are certainly one of them.
And here is a little inside secret: The new Andersons are by far the best guitars we have ever made—ever—the richest sounding and the best playing. The old ones were already better than anything else available so perhaps we should just call these new ones, “More Better."
Ha.
The reason for this is a culmination of so many refined specifics that it's impossible to define in under 5000 words—or more. But you get the idea. It's the coming together of each and every small and large aspect to create a whole that is far greater than the sum of its parts. Everything is chosen and “tuned” for excellence.
After this session, one touch of this T-Icon totally proved the point.
Lifting it to playing position and wrapping a hand and thumb around the neck instantly reminds that you are holding the most comfortable and capable, soft-edge neck ever. Launching into your favorite riff confirms your first-impression suspicions of superior Anderson performance to be true. It almost feels as if it wants to play itself—with your approval, of course.
And the tones emanating from this instrument—both plugged and un-plugged—are immediately noticeable and so sonically satisfying—round, full, never harsh, vibrant, alive and radiantly robust. Pair this with how “magically” in-tune an Anderson Guitar plays and you have simple close-interval triads and complex multifaceted chords ringing out unimpeded.
And don't you think that Steve McQueen would be pleased to know that the Bullitt Green color of his 1968 Mustang has now become an iconic guitar color that many people love?
Editor’s Note: The original Ford color was actually called Highland Green—new for the 1968 model year. It came to be known as Bullitt Green because of its supremely famous role in the Steve McQueen movie, Bullitt. This car later sold to a collector for 3.4 million dollars—the most valuable Mustang to date.
On this T-Icon, Bullitt Green is displayed with our In-Distress, Level 2 paint process for that played-in look and feel—Level 2 is a medium amount of wear—not too little and not too much. For many vintage players, it is just the right touch.
Embrace the joy of effortless excellence in all aspects of life. See you at the next session.
