Up for sale is a 2006 Tom Anderson Guitarworks Cobra S in the stunning Sweet & Sour Sauce Red Burst with binding. Excellent and not just for its age but let’s say very good condition.

There‘s a ding on the back I circle.

This is a high-end boutique build featuring a flamed maple top on mahogany, shorty scale (24 3/4”), and the classic Anderson Even Taper neck — fast, comfortable, and extremely dialed-in. I believe this is the last year the even taper was available on a Cobra.

Condition is excellent to near mint. There are only very light, hard-to-see polish swirls consistent with minimal handling — nothing that shows in photos. It presents beautifully.

Specs:

• Flamed Maple Top on Mahogany
• Sweet & Sour Sauce Red Burst w/ Binding
• Mahogany Neck, AFRICAN Rosewood Fretboard
• EVEN TAPER Neck Profile
• Heavy Frets
• 1 11/16” Nut Width
• Shorty Scale (24 3/4”)

• Chrome Vintage Tremolo
• Locking Tuners
• Pickups: H1 (neck) / H2+ (bridge)
• 5-way switching with push/pull coil split

Includes original Anderson hardshell case and factory spec sheet as shown.

This is a serious player’s instrument — the feel, neck carve, and overall build quality are exactly what you expect from Anderson.

If you were to order something comparable today, you’d be well into the $5K+ range.
