[u][b][color=#0000FF]Now £1050 and I'll split the shipping costs, how does that sound ? [/color][/b][/u]


I got the opportunity to try a Sadowsky lately and really love the sound. I'm going to try to buy one here and to that end I'm putting up my Fender American Vintage '62 reissue for sale/trade. Ideally I'd like to trade for a hybrid Sadowsky PJ.

I can sell it fitted with flats or round wound strings. The flats however will give you the Motown sound in spades, this bass gives the very sound that James Jamerson (session musician for Motown) got for all those famous Motown hits. He used a '62 with flats, sunburst and all, so if you're into Jamerson you can't get closer than this really :)

The '62 reissue is now a collectors item as it is no longer in production. This particular bass will only increase in value from this point as it's in absolutely fabulus condition.

Comes with all case candy and original vintage case (which is also in great condition).

Damn, that's a mightly fine looking bass...I'm afraid I've not got what you're after trade-wise, but I'd be willing to chat if my Lakland Skyline 55-02 Deluxe sells anytime soon...

Just to show you how close this is to Jamersons bass. It's a beauty folks, you won't be disappointed.

Retailed new at £1850 there abouts. £1200 for one in as close to new condition as you'll get is a pretty fair deal. Any takers/offers

It's a great bass, no doubt about it and so loyal to that old sound. This does that Jamerson sound in spades.

If someone out there wants an instrument that accurately simulate the Motown years then this is the one. Now selling at 2/3 te price of a new instrument (even though they're now out of production). A collectors item in truth.

There's been a few questions asking where you are but no replies? I might be interested in coming to have a go if you are nearby but I wouldn't want to buy without trying first!

I did reply to all who asked but I should probably reply here too.

I'm from Dublin, not close enough I assume but thanks for your interest all the same.

Kind Regards,
Mark
