Not sure I want to do this or not so I reserve the right to remove at any time
. This has been my favorite alder/rw combo. With the sadowsky pre, reverse P and braz board it punches like crazy. The neck is more like a sadowksy profile then the uber thin nordy neck on the modern series. I think was a request of the original owner. Small ding on the front as picture otherwise super clean. I might trade for the right 35" scale ash/maple fiver. For cash I am looking at $2200 shipped to your door (lower 48).
