Members BlackHatHunter Posted January 12, 2010 Members Share Posted January 12, 2010 ... I am psyched. I so love that 2-bolt design: My understanding is that she used to be a Guitar of the Week: Shipped today, I should get her in 5 to 6 days. Can't wait.

Members Virgman Posted January 12, 2010 Members Share Posted January 12, 2010 Did you really pay that much? It's nice. I paid $20 for my Johnson strat. It's good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Bert-O-325 Posted January 13, 2010 Members Share Posted January 13, 2010 ... I am psyched. I so love that 2-bolt design: I'll bet its a very sweet playin' geetar! The 2-bolt does intrigue me, I wonder what a side-by-side comparison with an equivalent 4-bold would sound like? (aww, who'm I kidding, my ears/skill aint good enough to tell the difference tween "nice" guitar and a "Great" guitar anyhow!) But I'll still bet its a sweet playin' and sound guitar! Be sure and post a video review (and play some of your smooth bluesy stuff for demo, pleez? ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members headless Posted January 13, 2010 Members Share Posted January 13, 2010 Break-out the screw-driver--I want to see what kind of system they use for fastening those bolts to the neck! (yeah, I wouldn't do it either.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members bloolight Posted January 13, 2010 Members Share Posted January 13, 2010 I'm not a big fan of quilts, but that 2-bolt neck is pretty fascinating. The pickups are also quite intriguing...I can't wait to hear you play it in a vid! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BlackHatHunter Posted January 13, 2010 Author Members Share Posted January 13, 2010 Thanks guys, I can't wait to make the vids either it's gonna be my Lester-like axe... I must say, I am very happy w/ my current line up. Famous last words Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BlackHatHunter Posted January 13, 2010 Author Members Share Posted January 13, 2010 I had a Tom Anderson Cobra S a while back with that same 2-bolt neck joint... for those who are not familiar with them, these pics may help: More pics of the Cobra S are here: http://guitpics.wordpress.com/2010/01/13/tom-anderson-cobra-s-sunburst-guitar-of-the-week-p90-pickups/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frets99 Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 She's a beautiful guitar, man. The 2 bolt neck intrigues me. Must be engineering things beyond my ken going on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members RaVenCAD Posted January 13, 2010 Members Share Posted January 13, 2010 Innovation is great and all, but that price is ridiculous, even if it's just the MSRP.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members The Rossness Posted January 13, 2010 Members Share Posted January 13, 2010 That thing is awesome. Tom Anderson makes some of the best guitars I've ever played. Be sure to enjoy it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members hecticone Posted January 13, 2010 Members Share Posted January 13, 2010 Enjoy They are worth every penny. I wished I would have bought one ten years ago. There is nothing else out there that even compares. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members BlackHatHunter Posted January 13, 2010 Author Members Share Posted January 13, 2010 Thanks guys. I am looking for some stability in my rig, and I think/hope that this guitar will take care of the HB/Lester portion of things. The Thorn took care of the P90 realm, the Lentz of the trad Tele, the Crook of the Tele w/ a fun TV Jones in the neck, the Crowdster of the electro-acoustic. The SRV strat takes care of the strat thing, but frankly, if I can put my hands on a sweet Lentz SSL, I may just have to do that! Now I need a semi hollow, 335-style, but... I'm gonna have to save some dough first. I'd like to get another Collings I35 someday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members rocknhard Posted January 13, 2010 Members Share Posted January 13, 2010 For that price, I hope it puts out before bedtime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members metallica_00 Posted January 13, 2010 Members Share Posted January 13, 2010 I've always thought that neck joint was really neat. I'm not a huge fan of the Atom's body shape, but I'm sure it's a nice guitar and will sound excellent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members BlackHatHunter Posted January 13, 2010 Author Members Share Posted January 13, 2010 Thanks guys. As for the body shape, I already have a Crowdster, which is similar, and it's very comfy...
