Sound Pure's Take
Condition: Used, Excellent
For tone worthy of jazz great in a smaller package, look no further than this beautiful Jimmy Bruno model from Sadowsky. While we all love the sound of those big-bodied archtops, those of us who are a bit smaller in stature might find them a bit uncomfortable to play especially in a long session. At around 15" on the lower bout and just 2 3/4" deep, you won't believe how big she sounds!
SP Luthier Notes: Complete refret, shimmed nut, wiring harness redone, cleaned and buffed
From Other (Miscellanous Used/Vintage/Consign)
The Sadowsky Jimmy Bruno Model achieves the goal of a smaller, comfortable guitar that is resistant to feedback but does not compromise on tone.
The smaller body permits a higher feedback threshold and is very comfortable to play. The mahogany neck gives the guitar a rich, warm fullness that makes this instrument sound much “bigger” than one would expect from a smaller body.
Sadowsky Guitars is thrilled to have this special relationship with such a fine jazz guitarist as Jimmy Bruno.
