SC1 & HC2 Pickups - Even Taper +.050 Neck Profile - Heavy Frets
Tom Anderson Hollow Drop Top Classic | Honey Burst w/Binding
SC1 & HC2 Pickups - Even Taper +.050 Neck Profile - Heavy Frets
Anderson Guitarworks has long been admired for its innovation and craftsmanship, and the Anderson Hollow Drop Top exemplifies this with its unique design and sonic performance. Introduced in 1990, the Drop Top features a striking exotic wood top with a bent design for ergonomic comfort and aesthetic appeal. The 25 1/2-inch scale guitar comes in a Honey Burst finish, with a maple neck and rosewood fingerboard for optimal playability. Its Even Taper +.050 neck profile, 1 11/16-inch nut width, and Heavy stainless steel frets ensure smooth performance, while Anderson's HC2 and SC1 pickups, paired with the vintage tremolo and Buzz Feiten Tuning System, deliver a versatile tonal range with excellent tuning stability.
At first glance, the Drop Top's allure is undeniable, thanks to its signature "dropped" exotic wood top. Crafted with precision, this bent contour not only enhances aesthetics but also ensures a comfortable playing experience with swooping body lines and a forearm contour that feels like an extension of your picking arm.
The body construction of the Drop Top Classic Hollow is a harmonious blend of materials, featuring a flame maple top paired with Okoume. This combination yields a rich, full-bodied sound with a punchy response. The addition of sealed chambers further enhances the guitar's resonance, providing a gentle attack and an airy quality to the tone - not to mention a further weight reduction to an already light guitar.
Finished in a striking Honey Burst with binding and a trans brown back, the Drop Top Classic Hollow exudes elegance from every angle. The beautiful high-gloss finish adds a touch of sophistication, complementing the guitar's aesthetic appeal.
The neck of the Drop Top Classic Hollow is crafted from caramel maple, with a 12"-14" compound radius rosewood fingerboard that adds a sleek, rich appearance. The Even-Taper +.050 neck profile and 1 11/16" nut width ensure a smooth playing experience, allowing for effortless transitions up and down the fretboard.
One of the most notable features of the Drop Top Classic Hollow is its fretwork. Equipped with Heavy stainless steel frets, this guitar offers unparalleled playability and responsiveness. The stainless steel frets provide a silky smooth feel, allowing for effortless string bends and fluid vibrato.
Equipped with Anderson's vintage tremolo system and HC2 and SC1 pickups, the Drop Top delivers a versatile tonal palette. The HC Series humbuckers are designed to produce a balanced sound with muscular midrange, musical upper-mids, and sweet highs, ideal for a wide range of playing styles from vintage rock to contemporary fusion. Add in the hum-cancelling, musical, single-coil SC1 paired with a 5-way switch and Splitter switch, you have a plethora of tones to choose for a variety of applications.
Completing the package are .010-.046 Elixir strings, which offer exceptional tone and extended lifespan. Additionally, all Anderson guitars come equipped with the Buzz Feiten Tuning System, ensuring precise intonation and accurate tuning across the fretboard.
