Is this a cedar or spruce top?

Great guitar. Great year. The cedar top adds a degree or warmth to the tone that is pleasing to my ears. I debated between an example of this model and the HD28 I eventually bought in 98.

You mention "pre wired." What does this mean? The endpin jack is still in place? Just install the p/u and you're good to go?

If its not already sold, please PM me as I am interested as well.

Thanks

Default After market electronics

ChuckNOS:

The guitar came with no electronics (i.e. no pickup). I had the guitar wired so I could use a pick up which was a sunrise. There is an end pin jack. All one needs to do is put in a pick up and "you're good to go."

Sunrise makes a specific installation kit for it's sound hole pickup that includes an endpin jack, mogami wire and 2 in line mini jacks with clips. This allows quick removal of the pickup for best acoustic performance. So does your description actually mean you removed the sunrise pickup with it's wire and one inline clip, and left installed in the guitar for sale the endpin jack that is wired to the remaining inline mini jack and it's clip? Thanks and peace, Rick
