Hello,

I am selling my dead mint condiution Sadowsky Jimmy Bruno Signature
Archtop Guitar in Caramel Burst. This guitar is gorgeous and it does
not have a mark, nick, scratch or anything that would say that it is
used. I purchased this guitar new four months ago and have not played
for more than a hour total. There are no issues with the instrument,
it is setup flawlessly and it sounds and plays as good as it looks. It
has a very comfortable neck, extremely fast for a guitar that has jazz
12 gauge strings on it. This guitar is hard to find new, let alone
used. Most of them are prepurchased before they are shipped. Here is
a chance to grab one like showroom condition at a bargain.

The Jimmy Bruno Model features 5-ply maple laminate body construction
with the following specifications:

14-3/4" body width at the lower bout

2-3/4" body thickness

1-11/16" nut width

Mahogany neck with Ebony fingerboard and cat’s eye pearl inlays

24-3/4" scale, 22 frets, 15 frets to the body

Ebony bridge, tailpiece and pickguard

Gold hardware

Caramel Burst

Price is $3,495

If interested please email me for pix.

I don't doubt the sincerity of the OP or anything, but I keep seeing
these ads here and on Ebay and on Craigslist.

Why do people buy these high end instruments, play them for 14
minutes, and sell them? What can they possibly be thinking?

I understand that the economy is a little shaky these days, but sheez.

Yeah, why not just send it back if you don't like it?

In what way is it "dead". Does it not have a resonant tone?

How about "I have $4K to spend on a good guitar, this one sounds great
on paper, I'll give it a shot." I'm pretty sure most people who buy
pricey guitars are not missing rent payments because of it. And not
everybody lives next door to a Sadowsky outlet store where they can go
try it for a couple hours a day for a week before plunking down the
dough. Worst case he pays a few hundred bucks on his own education...
he probably won't be stuck with that guitar much longer.

Irrespective of other consderations, the Sadowsky JB is a magnificent
instrumnent [I have one]. New, they're 3895, so the price is
haggleable, but the quality, of tone and touch, is unimpeachable.
