The Sadowsky Broadway
The Sadowsky Broadway guitar represents an original design that utilizes Roger’s more than four decades of experience with guitar making and the relationship of wood and tone. The most important factor affecting the sound of our solid body instruments is the acoustic quality of the wood. The better a guitar sounds acoustically, the better it always sounds, no matter what pickups, electronics, or amplification are used.
"I spent two years conceptualizing, designing, and prototyping my Broadway guitar models. Given my lifelong thesis that "The Wood Is My Foundation"... I designed a model that embodies my 44 years of experience with guitar making and the relationship of wood and tone.
