jim777 Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 It's easier on a guitar with a neck pickup, but you can play jazz on anything. Those are some fine guitars though, and will definitely do the job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinch Posted May 11, 2018 Author Share Posted May 11, 2018 That's a good point. I have a 70s Guild solid body which plays beautifully but the sound is not what I'm looking for and I don't want to modify it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim777 Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 I've played as many jazz gigs (jams, really) on my Tele as on my 175. But I wouldn't talk anyone out of grabbing a Newport if it was in their ability to get one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GASguy Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 I have a Newport Pro Spruce / Mahogany in natural, I am the original owner and it is in exceptionally clean condition as I have a lot of guitars, and 4 other Newports of different woods / configurations. I am looking to downsize as I will eventually be downsizing my home. I can post or PM photos later if you are interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Studio Custom Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 It always amazes me that people forget Les Paul invented the solid body guitar to play jazz on, and get away from feedback issues when doing so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boomerang~Junkie Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 I'll be reposting Hamer Improv #13 tommorow. It's the only cognac colored one Mike/Hamer crafted. Built by Hamer for endorsee Kal David. I bought it directly from him. Mint with case - no changes or issues. PM if interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
