Walter Becker Signature Model

 

"Sadowskys play and sound great, stay in tune, and are very versatile"
-Walter Becker

"Becker’s main guitar is his signature Walter Becker model Sadowsky. It features custom Lollar P-90 pickups, spalted maple top and swamp ash body. In the neck/middle and middle/bridge settings, the pickups are wired for humcancelling output. The tiny three-way switch controls a special preamp that offers separate buffer and gain boosts. The third knob has a push/pull feature that activates the neck/bridge combination with the 5-way switch in either the neck or bridge positions."
