Sadowsky 24 Fret 5-String

Post by Lefty007 »

I had this for sale last year and took it off the market, but I'm considering selling it again.

Description and specs:

-Excellent shape. Built in 2003. Typical scratches and nicks of a bass that has been played, but well taken care.
-Fretboard shows a bit of wear by the heel, but just part of normal wear.
-Ash body, maple neck and board.
-Weighs about 8 lb.
-All original Sadowsky pickups and electronics.
-Black hardware.
-Like all my basses, it's setup with very low action.
-Comes with Dunlop straplocks.
-Comes with original lightweight case and polishing cloth. The case is a bit dirty and has a few blemishes here and there, but fully functional.

Needless to say, this bass will cost new $4625 without a case, plus shipping. Asking $2295 plus shipping. I can ship to anywhere in the world.

Don't hesitate to ask any questions.

My trade options are pretty limited:

1. '70s P-Bass with an A neck (1.5" nut). I know that Fender made a few of these in 1973.

2. A Mike Lull 5-string, 34" scale. And I only know of one lefty Lull 5-string, 34" scale in existence: the one that was stolen from me! :x

Sorry, not interested on any trades at the moment, and I might be keeping the bass after all, so not that motivated to sell either. . .

Lol, while true, the wide neck bothers me, which is weird because I have huge hands.
