Serial number # 0701010546, 2007
This guitar is such a smooth beauty. It has a deeply flamed maple top and flamed back (see pics!!). It has a rosewood neck with curly mahogany and a deep flamed top. The top is very thick, carved, and beautiful.
According to Gadow, this guitar is “1 of 1”.
Why am I selling? Not performing now. And, I have 95 guitars but really only have room for 50 and time to play 20 or 30.
The guitar is as close as possible to brand new as I bought it from the dealer and has never been gigged with. It has been kept in my dry, smoke and pet free studio. The MSRP is $6480! Dealer had it for almost $5200! (15 years ago.)
Comes with original hard-shell case, all case candy, and original tags.
Shipping is vitally important to me. I will bring this guitar to FedEx and pay them to "fragile pack" it in their box. My total cost of the box, their packing, plus shipping will likely be around $200. If you want it shipped, we can include that amount and I will refund the difference to you if its less.
Here's the Gadow website description:
CUSTOM SETNECK
Familiarity, comfort, and spectacular tone: these are the traits of the Custom Set Neck. A mahogany body and set mahogany neck combine to provide warm vintage sounds with bright, punchy highs. The neck is a little narrower than other Gadows.
The Custom Set Neck comes with Gadow handwound pickups. More so than any other Gadow, this guitar exudes pizzaz. We’ve dressed these guitars up with highly-figured carved maple tops and custom fretboard inlays.
If you crave tradition with Gadow comfort and tone, the Custom Set Neck is a must-have.
