Added versatility and improved ergonomics thanks to its angled control layout.

Mongrel is any of our wonderful Anderson "T" models with full and comfortable body contours, crowned with an "S" pickguard. Usually (but it doesn't have to be) appointed with some kind of tremolo system, our Anderson assembled Vintage Trem or Floyd Rose bridge. All together this makes one superbly cool, familiar and yet totally unique guitar that possesses some attributes never before accessible in one instrument. A perfect combination, a real Mongrel.

A thunderous and joyous return. With unrelenting enthusiasm and by popular demand, BariTom is back.

Yes, our coveted baritone instrument returns to the lineup for an exclusive late 2024 run. You can contact your favorite Anderson dealer now for reservations and specs or you can contact us if you need us to put you in touch with one of our excellent dealers or to discuss your favorite specs.

This is the instrument to choose when it is time to make a huge impression—either by itself or added into a track.

BariTom features:

A longer, 28.625” scale length which enables bigger strings to be tuned B to B, resounding a perfect 4th lower than a guitar at standard pitch. *Note: BariTom features our traditional, 4-Bolt neck joint.

BariTom can be had in 4 excellent iterations:

• BariTom Classic - all tone wood body (no top) with classic pickguard styling.

• BariTom Drop Top - with a top of your choice.

• BariTom Drop Top Classic - same as above but with pickguard styling.

• BariTom Pro Am - all tone wood body (no fancy top) non-pickguard styling.

The one that really started it all for us.

Back in the mid to late 80's, humbucker pickups and the Floyd Rose locking tremolo bridge found its way into the double cutaway guitars and a whole new style of Rock was launched.

Also in the mid 80's, a whole new guitar company was launched, Tom Anderson Guitarworks. As we stated in our first magazine ad, "We are a small American company dedicated to creating the world's finest feeling, playing and sounding electric guitars. Period!"

Well, it was this commitment that led to the Pro Am, the most amazing feeling, playing and sounding guitar to appear on the scene. It changed everything in the guitar world!

Cobra T will play it all.

From the moment Cobra T first appeared on the scene in 1992, its popularity has been utterly overwhelming. Everyone who touches one, seems to want one, and rightly so. But why? Cobra T is one of the only guitars on Earth (maybe the only one) that is a perfect blend between the formidable sonic muscle of a short scale guitar and the musicality of a long scale guitar.

And the only way to get this wonderful blend is aboard a Cobra T (or Cobra S). Cobra T is a short scale guitar. A shorter, 24 3/4-inch scale length means less string tension, fatter mids, and greater ease of bending and reaching. Additionally, Cobra T derives much of its muscle and focused, aggressive midrange by virtue of a mahogany foundation.

The Cobra body is attentively hand-selected, pure mahogany, crowned by an exotic wood top, usually beautiful, figured maple. Cobra T's neck is a sleek and fast mahogany back, embraced by a premiere rosewood fingerboard. But Cobra T has a bite that will predominate through any mix, on stage or in the studio, giving more life and dimension to every musical passage, an aspect that is usually difficult for most short-scale, mahogany guitars to achieve. Its geometry grants this gift, with its flat neck to body alignment and string through the body bridge choices, saddle tension is increased and clarity is exalted.

Even more versatility, adding a specially designed neck pickup to the regular Plus. Selectable electric guitar pickups that will bring it all to any arena, big or small.

The ultimate live music Acoustic Guitar (the Crowdster and Crowdster Plus) has now taken a quantum leap forward with the introduction of the Crowdster Plus 2.

The addition of a socially balanced and specially designed neck pickup unlocks almost unlimited potential and versatility, as any acoustic or electric guitar requisition now opens before you with ease, making Crowdster Plus 2 the most powerful Crowdster ever, and perhaps the most powerful and versatile guitar in your arsenal.

Crowdster Plus 2 features:

The same wonderfully lush and uncompromised live music acoustic abilities as the Crowdster Acoustic, expanded to utter magnificence by 2 electric guitar pickups that are specifically tuned to listen to the voice of bronze strings.

So all your acoustic guitar attributes remain firmly embedded while a large variety of ripping electric tones are now at your command.

The most profound, best playing and best sounding vintage double cut-away

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.

For a pure vintage vibe, an Alder or Swamp Ash body is hand-selected and kiln dried to perfection.

• Alder is the first and most popular choice among players, as an alder body bestows it gifts of full and boosted low-mid frequencies accompanied by predominate upper mid prominence. It is these qualities that bring big single coil tones effortlessly forward in the mix, when paired with the right amp for you. Humbuckers enjoy a lower end bump and slightly less all-middle-only tone.

• Swamp Ash: The open and ethereal, delicate, airy and complex "S" tone. Soft, soothing open middle lays the groundwork to showcase rich low, lows; highlighted with sparkling and softly sweet, musical highs.

• Basswood: Soft and bountiful midrange makes itself abundant as this is the wood (when done just right, and of course that's how we do it) that defined the core humbucker sound of the 80s in a 25 1/2-inch scale length guitar.
