Behold, my newest guitar acquisition!
This is a Tom Anderson Guitarworks Angel finished in sheer blue wakesurf. It has an alder body, a nicely figured maple top, caramelized maple neck with the even tapered profile, rosewood finger board, jumbo stainless steel frets, and the non-fine tuner Floyd Rose bridge. It weighs 7 lb 8 oz.
The pickups are the H1-, SF1, and H2+. The toggle is to switch between full humbucking (down) and split coil (up). There is also a push / pull tone pot that allows the middle pickup setting to be switched between the single coil (down) or both humbuckers (up). All nine pickup settings are useful sounds which makes it a very versatile guitar. I find that these medium output pickups have really great string separation that makes dense chord voicings ring clearly with lots of gain and also makes the core tone sit really well with layered modulation and delay.

As you can see, the frets are beautifully finished.
Speaking of finish, I made a video to show off the sheer finish. This designation means that the clear coat has reflective speckles in it that cause the light to dance off of the guitar in a manner similar to a metal flake finish.
I have played this guitar for a few hours now and it is an inspiring instrument. It is still early, but I think this is my new #1 favorite guitar. That is a high bar because my others are Suhr and USA made PRS guitars. I have been unable to find a single flaw on the instrument and I'm very picky. It has no dead notes, no finish issues, the frets are perfectly level across the entire neck, and the setup is right were I like it (after a quick tweak of the truss rod). This is my first real deal custom guitar and it turned out about as well as I could have hoped for.
