Tom Anderson T Icon Shorty Contoured, Chocolate Maple Neck, Rosewood Fingerboard, HC1/TF3 Pickups, Candy Apple Orange, w/Soft Case

Description:

T Icon - Pure vintage vibe with unparalleled performance is T-Icon. Nothing compares.

What you always dreamed and secretly wished your vintage guitar could actually be and do—and way, way more.

The T-Icon is our most iconic T-styled guitar. That is why we call it: T-Icon. Makes sense, right?

Sharing all the same elevated performance benefits of our venerated T-Classic model, the T-Icon also features a much more iconic 3-saddle bridge, with a baseplate design that surrounds the angled single coil-sized bridge pickup.

But an Anderson T-Icon guitar could never settle for just any 3-saddle bridge to satisfy mere looks. Our Traditional 3-Saddle bridge is exquisitely built, and fully compensated. It means that this bridge has a compensated (corrected) saddle design for uncompromisingly accurate intonation and ridiculously in-tune playing—like each and every Anderson guitar ever created.

This takes the vintage experience to a whole new level as accurate intonation not only means more in-tune playing but also much richer and fuller tonality with greater sustain as more sympathetic frequencies harmonize rather than contrast. Such a great playing experience!

It is this intricate attention to detail, along with all other Anderson elevated performance attributes, that creates this T-style instrument of unparalleled vintage proportions, known as T-Icon.

Features:

• Effortless Anderson playability.

• Traditional 3-Saddle bridge that is compensated for excellence in intonation, creating a guitar that plays wonderfully and robustly in tune.

• Brass saddles and a nickel-plated, steel baseplate surrounding the angled single coil-sized bridge pickup.

• "Shorty" 24 3/4-inch scale length.

• Comfortably sculpted front and back contours.

Happy Medium: Our most popular Cobra, Bobcat, and Atom neck is a medium depth back shape for the: “not too big and not too small but just right” neck feel. The taper is a “happy medium” among our other neck shapes. As your hand slides to the upper frets, playing depth increase a desirable "medium" amount.

Happy Medium: .825 at the 1st fret to .915 at the 12th

Pickups

HC Series

Within the sanctuary of a sleek and smooth cover beats the heart of a vintage lion. Mild to medium to hot output, HCs sing with a wonderful vintage flavored voice, depicted by focused midrange energy and enlightened by extremely musical upper-mids and seasoned with sweet, soft and soothing highs.

HC 1: More neck humbucker saturation, output and smoothness than HC1- while still retaining equilibrium for the neck position perfection. The quintessential mate for the medium-hot HC2 in the bridge position. Specs: DC Resistance: 7 kΩ, EQ(0-10) Bass: 4.8 Mid: 5.8 Treble: 4.8, Magnet: AlNiCo

TF Series

Are these the best T-size single coil, hum-canceling, pickups ever heard? In a word: Yes, yes they are. You will give up nothing to get rich, full bodied tonalities accentuated by sweet, soft and lush highs that are always perfectly smooth and clear.

TF 3: Most popular hum-canceling bridge position, hotter, richer single coil tones—very sweet. Specs: DC Resistance: 25.0 kΩ, EQ(0-10) Bass: 5.3 Mid: 4.7 Treble: 8.0, Magnet: Neodymium
