[Ethn Hayabusa]

I rarely play anything else since I got my Hollow Drop Top.

I would choose an Anderson over anything out there, any day of the week. I can't really say specific things that I prefer over a PRS in particular, I just like everything that an Anderson does.

I'm not a PRS fan myself, but they aren't bad.

 

[The Hoff]

I'd go Anderson

I've never really understood the PRS thing-they just don't play that well. But that's just personal preference and obviously I'm in the minority, many people swear by them. Try both but with the experience I have with Andersons, you really can't go wrong with them.

 

[Ayrton]

Between those two choices, I have to say Anderson.

 

[Solid Snake]

I'd go with the Tom Anderson, they're amazing guitars. I'm sure there are good PRSs out there, but I've never played one I liked.

 

[Jordon]

I'm a PRS fanboy, and that's a hard call to make.

 

[clubshred]

Tough call... I do like my 24 fretters but an Anderson Drop Top is such a beauty.

Id say go with the Anderson...and i just bought a prs but i only paid 1700 CAD for it...both are great guitar but its a preference thing..diff scale diff fretboard radius...

 

[Les Zombie]

I like the prs, i played alot of andersons and they was really nice but i liked my prs stuff better.

 

[Shark Diver]

I'd go Anderson

I've never really understood the PRS thing-they just don't play that well. But that's just personal preference and obviously I'm in the minority,

I think more people dislike PRS than like them. IDK maybe you could say that about every guitar if you think about it.

PRS cu 24 has a nice neck shape. One of their best. That is always the first thing for me in a guitar, does the neck feel right to me? So, it would depend on the neck shape of the Anderson.

I'm not a fan of the 25" scale really. Don't like PRS pups either. Anderson's pups are great.

If it was me, the Anderson if I liked the neck shape.

 

[chunktone]

Id go with an Anderson everytime.

 

[Fenderoid]

I am a mahogany guy with shrt fingers.PRS sounds better for me unless Anderson has the same wood combo.If u aren't int a specific type wood and th 24 frets Anderson is the way to go.Hpe that helps

 

[thiswaythatway]

They're very different guitars, play them both and decide.

However, i did own a PRS MCarty with a Rosewood neck at the same time as my Drop Top. I liked the McCarty but my Drop Top just sounded better to my ears for what i like to hear.

 

[Capulin Overdrive]

split the deference and kick both thier asses!


Anderson Bulldog!

 

[JTyson]

I'd get the Anderson, and I'm a PRS guy
I've always regretted getting rid of my Anderson

 

[Tone Zone]

I'd go with the Anderson, only because it'd be better suited to my style.

 

[pstar]

anderson won, possibly because it was more sexy, first hot rodded tele style i've own. but my old old fenders fell better and ,u old l
l.p, and of course my lados and f 's just kill them all.

 

[IntenseJim]

It's like apples to french fries, not even apples to oranges.

I'd take the Tom Anderson; I don't like the PRS 25" scale for some reason and prefer bolt-on to set neck tones most of the time. But there is no bad choice here.

What would buy? advantages / disadvantages ?

This is a stupid question. What wood are they both made from? What wood are you after? T/A seem to be the flavor of the month, PRS used to be. I'm not knocking T/A, I own one, awesome guitars, but you need to buy what suits you. As mentioned if you're after Mahogony you can't beat the T/A Bulldog.

 

[pstar]

found the t/a to be very pretty, the neck felt better than the prs, but my old fender, L.p's, lado's, f guitars, frankstein guitar works axes are still better for feel and sound, the t/a reminds me of my lado's.
