Condition / Setup Notes

Excellent(+); Reflective of its recent year, the guitar remains in very clean shape with minimal wear, if any at all. There is the slightest hint of fret wear, not enough to show in pictures, and not affecting play in any way. Currently set up with string height about 4/64”-3.75/64” from bass to treble, with minimal relief.

***

There’s a reason that Sadowsky archtops have gained so much popularity over the years. A winning design with high craftsmanship that culminates in the playability and tone that these guitars have become known for.
