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 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.
The most popular neck profile for our 25 1/2-inch scale length guitars. A sleek and fast silhouette with not a lot of depth change from the nut to the 12th fret. As your hand slides to the upper frets, playing feel and depth remain relatively the same.
The most musical S size single coil, hum-canceling, pickups ever heard—a real breakthrough—even richer than real vintage coils with equal effervescence, highlighted by sweet, soft and lush highs.
True vintage level, single coil sound, hum-canceling (great for neck and middle application).
DC Resistance: 11.0 kΩ, EQ(0-10) Bass: 7.3 Mid: 3.2 Treble: 6.8, Magnet: Neodymium
For bridge application, another time-honored Anderson humbucker series—medium-hot to hot output, focused-field (mid-concentrated frequency response) bridge pickups for an experience of more mid-muscle without sounding “pinched”—still full bodied and surprisingly musical, even at higher power levels.
Medium-hot output (somewhere around our H2+) but with a bit more mid tones for easier saturation of sound. Specs: DC Resistance: 12.5 kΩ, EQ(0-10) Bass: 3.0 Mid: 8.0 Treble: 7.0, Magnet: Neodymium
