I recently purchased this from a JGF member and find it a wonderful instrument at an absurdly reasonable price. My go to instrument is a 7 string custom 17” jazz box and my thought was to find something a bit more ergonomic for longer playing sessions. The Jazz Elite is perfect in this regard: only 5.6 lbs, 2.25 body depth, 1.75 nut, 25.0 scale, fully carved maple with spruce, loud acoustically. But although it is in the ballpark, it doesn’t sound quite as good as a full sized jazz box (duh!) and I miss the 7th string. So I am offering it for exactly what I bought it for: $1600, your shipping. You can read much more about this model on Lou’s website, Guitars ’n Jazz, he designed it with Eastman. Why is it so inexpensive? Apparently the previous owner took shipment on it during a winter cold snap and there is some finish checking on the face. It is difficult to see in the photos but in various lights you can see it. The back is unscathed. I researched it before buying and apparently it does not compromise the structure or sound in any way - many older guitars have this, and it can also be cosmetically improved with the addition of more finish. To me it is of little consequence except that it necessitates this lower price.
I read these messages that you guys sent me and I'm thinking take out of a talking about somebody other than my dirty nasty old grouchy ass

Little post of a street gig today with Sousa and Trumpet. Decided to go acoustic, with thinnish pick.
Recording made a few meters away from the guitar. Not too bad. No idea if the audience could...
My understanding has ALWAYS BEEN the smallest unit of chord is the triad. It doesn’t have to be root-3-5. It can be 1-4-5, 123, but it has to be three. Now if things have changed in the last 40...
Quite right.
I don't know who Pöhlert is and also don't care enough to click on the link. This too, no doubt, is an insult.
But we can both look down on people who use Aebersold charts for...
