Tom Anderson T Icon Trans White

This guitar is as close to perfect as anything we've ever played. 6 pounds 9 ounces of sonic nirvana and playing bliss. If you're looking for the ultimate Tele this could well be your weapon of choice. Everyone who's picked it up has a smile on their face when they're done. It's that good.

Starting point is a traditional swamp ash slab body. We added a caramel maple neck in Anderson's most popular configuration- Even Taper +.030" profile with Heavy frets. The vintage output TV1 neck pickup & higher output TV3 bridge pickup provide a nice palate of traditional tones with some extra spice and sweetness added to the mix.

This guitar is an extremely lively touch-sensitive instrument. It responds to whatever you throw it's way with aplomb. Pick lightly and it's sweet as pie. Dig in and it'll twang and boom with the best of its forebears. Add some overdrive and she flat out screams. Tone is bright and crisp as it should be but never harsh or shrill. Even through brighter amps there's a fullness to each single note yet even with mounds of gain each note in every chord rings out clearly.

We doubt you've played a T with faster action. She plays like a dream with no choked bends or rattly bottom string. The neck is fast without being too thin. The wedge neck pocket provides more contact area between neck & body and literally locks the neck in place. Fretwork is immaculate & the Buzz Feiten tuning system insures that even the tightest chord clusters play in tune all the way up the neck. Fit & finish are absolutely flawless.
