This hurts, but I have a strict gear in/gear out deal with the wife and I'm building a new tele, so...

I was a builder at Sadowsky for a few years and this is the guitar I built while I was there.

You can peep the guitar in the Sadowsky Archives here:
http://www.sadowsky.com/stock/view/feat_4271.html

The info on that page is slightly off: the neck pickup is also Lollar custom for Sadowsky and I updated the bridge to a Barden vintage style, 3 saddle. The six-saddle can either be reinstated before I ship or included in the package.

Also, there are 2 pretty good size dings - they're on the back/top edge of the guitar and were acquired in a fall off my Emmons pedal steel (so I'd like to think it picked up some genuine push/pull mojo in the process!). Photos of those are available if you follow the link below.

showing how the light hits the color and including close-ups of the boo-boo's.

I'm putting this out there for now - I'm looking for $1800. Also would entertain trades, partial trades, etc... Interested primarily in something vintage, Gibson custom shop semi-hollow, etc... but I'm open.

Mike

BUMP

your offers and trades will be entertained. thinking lately about Black S10 Push/Pulls. Gumby-headstocked LDGs, or a nice SD10 Mullen or Rains.

Hey, Mike, you wouldn't happen to have any Sadowsky jazz boxes you'd care to part with would you? I'd be interested in a Jimmy Bruno or Jim Hall model...

Thanks,
JC

Jim -

No, man, I was still there when those things debuted, but foolishly I didn't ever pick one up for myself. They are fantastic, though. And even better: I got to hand with both Jim and Jimmy at the shop! They are so great to be around, just as guys.

I want Jim Hall to be my grampa, and Jimmy Bruno is like a teddy bear who can then sit down and rip through modes like a mutha.

Mike

BUMP ^^

This was off the market for awhile, but I'd like to bring it back. It's still available. Price drop, too.
