    Thanks flippyfloop! It's really good modern jazz type bass.

    Hi, Thought that I ought to add that I have owned the bass from new (nov last year I think) and that it is the new style with sleeves for the neck screws rather than the old style neck plate. Alan

    Hi Fabinosto, I haven't checked this out but if you are happy to pay the cost of shipping then I am sure that this would be possible to arrange. I have bought basses direct from Sadowsky New York and if they can ship all over the world then I am sure that it would be possible for me to arrange. I don't know what the cost of shipping will be but I guess that you would also need to arrange for it to be insured but this could, I think, be arranged through the shipping company Fed Ex or similar. Regards and thanks for the interest. Alan

    Hi Mark ii, Thanks for your message. Yes, the MV4 does have vintage tone control. The eq is volume, balance, VTC, bass and treble. Cheers. Alan

    Hello basschatters, Sadowsky Metro Jazz 4 string bass in natural ash with maple board. I am selling this to help finance the acquisition of a 5 string bass that I have had my eye on for a while now. I wouldn't be interested in a trade but would looking for £1200 for a quick sale. [attachment=111355:DSC00425.JPG] [attachment=111356:DSC00424.JPG] I've owned this from new. I've had the Sadowsky for less than a year now and in terms of sound and playability it is just as good, in my view, as its more expensive American cousins. So far as I can see there are no issues with the bass. It has a low action, the truss rod works well and there is only the slightest of wear on the black pickguard. Has VTC control and comes with Sadowsky case. Any questions welcomed. And thanks for looking. Alan

    Hi, I assume that this is the same bass that is now up for sale at the Gallery? Is there a reason for why you are moving this on? Would you be interested in a trade for a Sadowsky Metro 4 string? Thanks. Alan

    Has anyone tried the Celinder 4 string at bass direct and is able to compare it to a sadowsky metro MV4? Interested in any observations...comments etc

    What a wonderful looking bass. I have bene thinking about a Celinder for some time - is it really 35 inch scale?

    Beautiful looking bass there. You could sell it to me and use the money to put towards the J Classic!

    Hi Truckstop, thanks for the heads up about the other thread. Interesting reading indeed. The last post was more than a year ago and there was no answer to the question about whether the business was still going or not.

    Does anyone know if Chris Celinder is still making basses? His website seems to have gone. I also put 'Celinder' into Google search and one of the documents that the search found was what appeared to be a legal ruling in Denmark - Celinder had failed to produce for a customer and it looks as if there was a small claims action taken against him. I am interested in checking out Celinder but other than looking out for second hand basses it doesn't look as if they are still in production. Anyone got any information about what has happened and if they are still going as a business?

    I had exactly the same problem. The Fender Deluxe is unfortunately not shielded so I had to shield the control cavity. Having done that i discovered that most of the inteerference was coming from the bridge pickup so I then shieded behind both pickups. The problem was pretty well rectified. Why on earth fender don't have shielding as standard on their top of the line bassses is totally beyond me.

    What an absoutely fantastic bass. It sounds terrific ... the soapbar pickup in the bridge position really seems to have addded soemthing to the finfer style playing. If only it were 34" scale!

    Has this now gone? Is it the bass at BassGear?

    Hi , can you tell me soemthing about the lined fretless neck? Is it a Status neck and what material is the fingerboard? Thanks.

    Any of you Reidmar owners live in the South Cambridge area that would be willing to let me pop 'round to have a listen to the amp? Thanks.
  19. Alanbass
    Thanks for the info. I'm seriously considering the bass!
  20. Alanbass
    Hi, What is the action like on the fretless? Is the neck straight and can you get a low action on it? Cheers. Alan
  21. Alanbass
    The Sandberg sounds terrific if I may say so!
  22. Alanbass
    Hi , Is the bass for sale the one used in the video? Cheers.
  23. Alanbass
    Hi, Any chance of seeing another photo of the neck? Can you get a low action on this? Cheers

    Hi all you Reidmar users out there. I am currently running a Genz Benz Streamliner 600 into two Vanderkley cabs (210 and 112). Very interested in all the positive comments about the Reidmar. Used to have an EBS HD350 which I have regrets about parting with. I love the EBS sound and the light weight of the Reidmar is very appealing to me. Just wondered if any of you out there had any experience of using both the Reidmar and the GB Streamliner 600? Cheers.
