Some guitars just feel
right the minute you hold them .... and when you play,
they almost play themselves. This is one
of those guitars, comfortable, effortless and
with superb tone.
The NYL-5 is the
Byrdland of the Vestax range. It is
the thinline 17" New Yorker but with a full scale and floating Kent Armstrong
mini-humbucker.
Rather like a thinline Johnny Smith!
Such tone and so easy to play.
It has all the hallmarks of the classic Vestax guitars and
this one is signed-off by the legendary master luthier
Hidesato Shiino in
2004.
It is absolutely MINT
and shows no signs of having been played.
It came from a one owner collection.
As a 2004 instrument, its tone is now mellow and
soft. A very nice archtop and a superbly
jazzy guitar. |
