Davewick Posted June 20, 2011 Posted June 20, 2011 (edited) Hi!!!! I want sell a beautiful Sadowsky Tokyo, made in japan. The bass has 1 piece ash body, maple neck and fretboard, Badass bridge and Sadowsky Pu and electronic. In active mode, the bass has the same sound of Miller, in passive mode, it's sound very vintage Mr. Sadowsky himself say that the Tokyo was produced with the same quality of the Nyc at about 35% less than the cost of american Sadowsky ( [url="http://www.talkbass.com/forum/f8/sadowsky-tokyo-61613/#post685156"]http://www.talkbass.com/forum/f8/sadowsky-...613/#post685156[/url] ) The bass is new, bought and never used (it has the certificate of authenticity). Some pics: [attachment=83136:SSM10880.JPG] [attachment=83137:SSM10881.JPG] [attachment=83138:SSM10882.JPG] [attachment=83139:SSM10883.JPG] [attachment=83140:SSM10884.JPG] [attachment=83141:SSM10885.JPG] [attachment=83142:SSM10886.JPG] [attachment=83143:SSM10887.JPG] I would sell at 1220£ with hard case and european ship incluse, but i'm open to trade with high quality basses, or with a Corvette $$+cash. Greetings from Italy!!! Edited September 15, 2011 by Davewick

Davewick Posted June 21, 2011 Author Posted June 21, 2011 About 4,5 kilos... not so light but is very comfortable to play!
Davewick Posted June 25, 2011 Author Posted June 25, 2011 Hi Mikey, thanks but i'm only interested in Warwick $$ e Jazzman. However, price drop to 1120£ only bass!!!!
Davewick Posted June 26, 2011 Author Posted June 26, 2011 I'm not crazy, but i've found a bass that i love, so price drop to 1070 gpb!!!! Ship and case are about 90 gpb to UE
Davewick Posted June 28, 2011 Author Posted June 28, 2011 Other price drop to 990 gpb, only for this week!
joe_bass Posted July 1, 2011 Posted July 1, 2011 So this is one of the first Sadowskys made in the Tokyo workshop? Hence the differences from the now established Metro lines? Either way under a grand for a Sadowsky instrument, in as new condition as well, is a steal!
Davewick Posted July 1, 2011 Author Posted July 1, 2011 Joe, the only thing that i can say about the quality of Tokio, is that this line of bass was directly contender of the Sadowsky Nyc, the Metro is also an high quality bass, but Mr.Sadowsky tell to the japanese workshop to "reduce" the quality, for an obviously interest. The reasoning is:Why i should buy a bass that cost about 35% more of a bass that give the same quality at a lower price??? However, i sold the bass at 1100 euro only until tuesday, after i raise the price to 1250 euro, so hurry
joe_bass Posted July 1, 2011 Posted July 1, 2011 I'm not knocking the quality of it at all, & on this note the Metros are the same quality as NYCs as stated by Roger. My question is is this bass one of the first to be made at Sadowsky Tokyo?
Davewick Posted July 1, 2011 Author Posted July 1, 2011 Sorry, i haven't understand!!! If i remember correctly, this bass was produced by the 2000 for few years (like one or two), so i think that was the first line produced at Sadowsky Tokyo
joe_bass Posted July 1, 2011 Posted July 1, 2011 Awesome, so it's some thing a bit rarer than the standard Metro! Good luck with the sale, seems a good one for anyone considering a Sadowsky
Davewick Posted July 1, 2011 Author Posted July 1, 2011 Thanks Joe!I hope to sell it soonest because there's a bass that i love, and i would buy it
gareth Posted July 1, 2011 Posted July 1, 2011 Is the bass completely as standard - as it left the factory? To mee the 2 chrome and 2 black knobs look a little strange?
Davewick Posted July 1, 2011 Author Posted July 1, 2011 Hi the bass is all original, also the knob, are all write on the certificate

Davewick Posted July 14, 2011 Author Posted July 14, 2011 I don't do the trade beacause i've found a Warwick Thumb 89 fretless ( :Q___ ), so i need only cash, and i sell it at 1050 euros/925gbp, it's the lowest price on the net!
