Introduced as part of the Broadway series, the LS-13 celebrates modern precision and contemporary versatility—an elegant, refined instrument delivered with the uncompromising approach that built the Sadowsky name. Its ergonomic chambered body produces acoustic resonance, singing sustain, and exceptional balance across the fingerboard, while thoughtful design choices maximize the potential when you plug in. With graceful lines and meticulous craftsmanship, the Broadway LS-13 showcases Sadowsky’s boutique artistry.
Built in 2022, this LS-13 combines a 25-1/2" scale and a chambered Ash body with a gorgeous Flame Maple top. With a two point tremolo and bolt-on Maple neck, this LS-13 is essentially a tricked out S-Style guitar where the quality and resonance of the wood lead the design. The pickup configuration—two humbuckers with a single coil in the middle—offers impressive versatility, and the onboard active preamp expands the tonal range even further.
In your hands, the ergonomic, approachable body make the LS-13 feel inviting and expressive. Weighing in at 6 lbs 7 oz (without the tremolo arm), this LS-13 feel nice and lightweight and it stays balance on a strap. The Maple neck has a wider 1-3/4" and 10" fingerboard radius make it easy to stretch out. The setup is nice and low, so the overall playability almost effortless. Premium hardware ensures stability, and the mini-toggle switch adds an active mid boost and a touch of extra gain when desired.
This 2022 Sadowsky Broadway LS-13 has been played and shows minor playwear, but remains in excellent overall condition with no major cosmetic blemishes. It’s an inspiring guitar—lightweight yet substantial, resonant yet controlled—and it responds dynamically to touch. Clean tones shimmer, overdriven sounds sing with articulation, and the mid boost can push an amp into saturated bliss. It includes its original featherweight case, tremolo arm, adjustment tools, paperwork, and case candy.
