Tom Anderson Icon Classic Shorty - Metallic Purple with Hardshell Case

The Icon Classic Shorty: Retro Style, Modern Muscle

Vintage Tone Meets Short-Scale Comfort

The Tom Anderson Icon Classic Shorty is a no-compromise electric built for players who crave boutique craftsmanship with a familiar vintage vibe. With its 24 3/4-inch short scale, this model delivers a slightly softer string feel and tighter response, perfect for bending and expressive phrasing. The alder body is finished in a lustrous Metallic Purple gloss that makes a statement, matched by a sleek satin-backed maple neck with a rosewood fingerboard for smooth, broken-in feel from day one.

Custom-Wound Pickups, Wide-Tone Switching

This Icon Classic Shorty is loaded with a versatile H1 SF1- HN2+ pickup configuration that covers wide sonic spectrum. From sparkling cleans and clear midrange to muscular bridge growl, this guitar delivers with clarity when you want it and punch when you need it. The 5-way switching system, enhanced with a splitter setup, makes it easy to access middle and neck-plus-bridge tones that are often missing with traditional wiring. Whether you’re playing clean, crunch, or saturated gain, this guitar thrives across the board.

Carve-Top Comfort and Effortless Playability

The 60’s Vibe neck profile offers just the right amount of substance, striking the perfect balance between modern performance and vintage familiarity. Medium-jumbo frets provide ample real estate for smooth bends and articulate chording without ever feeling cumbersome. The contoured heel and wedge neck pocket give full access to upper frets while maximizing resonance between the neck and body for better sustain and tonal integrity.

Precision Setup and Pro-Level Features

Every detail on this guitar is engineered for excellence, from the Buzz Feiten tuning system that ensures accurate intonation up and down the neck, to the chrome vintage tremolo bridge that offers expressive pitch control without compromising tuning stability. Fit and finish are absolutely flawless, it really is a performance machine that adapts to the needs of serious players.

Built to Inspire and Ready to Go

Whether you’re chasing clean studio tones or driving an amp into full saturation, this Icon is always ready to deliver.
