That an original one from July 1988 I tracked it down and bought it from the original owner last year. It's featured on the Tom Anderson Guitars website under the models.

Nice. What did you get?
 
Both of those and the collection look phenomenal..i've got an Anderson on the way that should hopefully get delivered by end of year/early next year
 
Very nice, really like the TA! Can't believe it was shipped just in the case from Norway. Great collection of guitars you have.

The Suhr was missing the backplate that was cutout for the tremol no, screws, trem bar, build sheet, and tools. I emailed Don at Suhr customer service and he shipped all that stuff to me for free! :rock:

I got the Suhr used a few weeks ago...The Suhr popped up on Ebay from a seller in Norway who shipped the guitar all the way to Chicago in the case only, no box, no packing. Luckily it arrived safe. I snuck a pic from the original owner on who custom ordered it, but wasn't the color he wanted so it was returned to Wild West Guitars and then shipped to a buyer in Norway.

My original purple Suhr! Wish it had been the right color, as it plays great and that quilt is super epic. Enjoy!
 
Oh I didn't know you were on here too. The one that you replaced it with looks equally as awesome though.
 
Damn that's an awesome collection , I wish I could get my hands on another pro am like yours with the original headstock , I had a solid white one with no fret markers with the most awesome rosewood of some type fretboard and sold it like an idiot and have regretted it ever since.
 
The Bowling Ball has an awesome looking pau ferro board. Did yours look like this? He used a lot of pau ferro back then.

 
Those Suhr guitars will be banging the three Andersons when you're not around... just what I've heard.

I think youre right it looked a lot like your pic there ,very vivid streaking , definitely the nicest looking fretboard on a guitar I'd ever owned at that point, it had stacked single coils and an HB with hardware just like yours (Black Floyd /switcheroo) and I loved the switcheroo system .... so many pickup combinations to be had with that.
 
Jim, those all look great! Love that trans black and bowling ball Kirk Hammet Anderson!
 
LOVIN that purple Suhr and I didn't know you had a TA Bowling Ball that's awesome
 
The male escort gig is only cool if you're an escort for women only...and even then it would be 99.9% fat housewives or old toothless widows....that .01% of MAYBE hot chicks wouldn't be worth it.
 
Whats the finish on the back of the guitar hanging behind the new Suhr.
Looks like Textured Ceiling plaster
 
I think you're referring to the Tom Anderson PRO Am Blowing Ball finish.

It's not textured. It's kinda splattered and cleared over. Tom Anderson sends those out to be painted by Pat Wilkins.
