JAZZ!! Sadowsky Jim Hall Archtop Electric Guitar Caramel Burst

Up for sale is a Sadowsky Jim Hall Signature, a refined hollowbody built in tribute to one of the most respected jazz guitarists of all time.

This was my main instrument during my time studying jazz. It is the guitar I practiced with the most, performed with, and spent the most hours developing my tone on. Because of that, there is real attachment to it. I am letting it go simply because I am no longer actively playing jazz.

If you are searching for this model, you likely already know what it sounds like. The tone is warm, articulate, and deeply expressive — exactly what one expects from a Jim Hall design. It responds beautifully to touch and dynamics, and sits perfectly in a jazz mix.

There are normal signs of use and light play wear. Aside from the scratches and small dents shown in the photos, it remains in clean overall condition. There are no structural issues, and nothing that affects playability or tone. It plays exactly as it should.

It will come with a well-used hard case.
