It's a rare treat to get an older Sadowsky NYC with the 3-digit inked serial number on the back of the headstock. These early ones are coveted by players and have also developed a serious collector's market over the past decade. It doesn't get any better than AAAA quilt maple top over a swamp ash body.  The 3-tone sunburst just enhances the beauty of the maple. The maple neck has a 1 5/8" nut width. Outfitted with a P/J pickup setup & paired with an 18-volt preamp for ultimate stage and studio tone. Tips the scales at just 8 3/4 lbs and comes with the sofa-sized original Sadowsky hard/soft case.
