[Dookychase]

Thanks

Thanks. I've been to his website a couple of times and overlooked that.

I thought the thread was referring to the new Sadowsky LS-17... which is likely a fantastic guitar as the other models I have played have been really nice.

from the website...

Sadowsky Guitars is pleased to announce our newest archtop model, the LS-17.

Designed for lovers of the classic "EL FIVE", the LS-17's appeal lies in its 17" wide body and 25 1/2" scale length giving the player a big, warm sound.

The thinner 2 3/4" body makes the guitar much more comfortable to play and the 5-ply maple laminate construction helps reduce feedback.

Designed for the working musician, the LS-17 is a roadworthy instrument, optimized for amplified playing and priced affordably when compared to its carved siblings.

The Sadowsky LS-17 … a jazz standard … redefined.

$3995 including custom hardshell case.

towards the end of the thread there is a post from Roger Sadowsky where he gives the outline specs for the LS-17 and the SS-15

I'm curious to hear how these two new models compare to the Benedetto Bravo... similar specs and similar price.
