Description
ELECTRIC NYLON NYC Guitar The Sadowsky Electric Nylon is a chambered body instrument designed for nylon strings. Developed primarily for the electric guitarist, the neck is thin and comfortable, with just enough extra width to accommodate the nylon strings. An acoustic style bridge graces the beautiful maple top. The custom made Barbera pickup integrated into the bridge saddle is powered by a custom Sadowsky buffer preamp. The instrument lends itself to both pick and fingerstyle techniques and produces exceptional tone when going direct into a board or through a variety of amps and PA systems. It is feedback-free and is suitable for small clubs or large stadium concerts. Electric Nylon players include Earl Klugh, Pat Metheny, Lee Ritenour, Gilberto Gil, Djavan, Daryl Steurmer, John Abercrombie, John Scofield, Mike Stern, Mick Goodrick, and Keith Richards.

Features and functionality
-
The Sadowsky Electric Nylon uses a piezo pickup system, similar to those on acoustic guitars, positioned under the bridge saddle for sound capture.
Source -
The piezo setup allows for nylon strings, as it doesn't rely on magnetic pickups, which can't capture vibrations from non-magnetic strings.
Source
Comparisons
-
The Sadowsky Electric Nylon is considered superior to older models like the Gibson Chet Atkins for its sound quality and comfort.
Source -
The Sadowsky is noted for having fewer feedback issues compared to semi-hollow models like Godin and Ramirez, making it more reliable in live settings.
Source -
A Sadowsky nylon string is noted to have a truss rod, a feature less common in similar models like the Gibson Chet Atkins.
Source
User experience
-
The piezo EQ is positioned on the top of the lower bout, which some players find inconvenient as it may be bumped during play.
