Story
If Prince’s weapon of choice was the Mad Cat Tele, Joan Jett’s was the HS A2 — a premium, top-shelf Anderson guitar built to turn heads!
With top-tier materials and a carved, one-of-a-kind silhouette, the A2 claimed its place at the forefront of the HS Anderson lineup.
Today, originals are almost impossible to track down, and if you’re lucky enough to find one, the price will make your jaw drop! So, after the runaway success of our Mad Cat, we knew it was time to give this iconic axe the same treatment. The Mad Cat JJ is our faithful, affordable homage — capturing the spirit, style, and unmistakable attitude of the original.
