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.

Henriksen Blu 6 complete with power cable and gig bag. Good condition and no problems at all. Will include the little ramp/riser from Henriksen as well.
$800 plus shipping?
Thanks.
What a beautiful guitar. Congratulations! I'd be very interested in hearing what it sounds like acoustically. Some say that the CC pickup takes away from the acoustic sounds with its three bolts but...
I'm using an older Zoom Model, only problem is they no longer make the Smart Media cards for it (they became Dumb Media cards) so I've had to buy used ones on eBay.
Apparently you are unaware...
Thanks so much Graham n bop, that was a really emotional read and fascinating and gripping all at the same time was a lot that struck a note.
