barks Posted August 24, 2008 Posted August 24, 2008 (edited) This is just an idea at the moment but I don't use this bass and it seems a shame to just have it doing nothing. I would be interested in offers around £1000. No trades thanks ....except maybe for a nice old Precision or old Stingray perhaps. Cheers Neil.

CHRISDABASS Posted August 24, 2008 Posted August 24, 2008 sadowsky metros are absolutley fantastic basses!! i have both a metro and an NYC and there's hardly anything between the two!! i highly recommend any sadowsky to anyone! this one in particular looks gorgeous!! if only i had the money! good luck with the sale
martthebass Posted August 25, 2008 Posted August 25, 2008 As above - beautiful bass. Unfortunately neither my Ray or P bass are more than 4 years old (plus the Ray used to be yours!). Neil's a great guy to deal with. Bank holiday bump.
Skactus Posted August 25, 2008 Posted August 25, 2008 some more information about the model would be great....
CHRISDABASS Posted August 26, 2008 Posted August 26, 2008 [quote name='Skactus' post='269627' date='Aug 25 2008, 05:40 PM']some more information about the model would be great....[/quote] well someone correct me if im wrong but to me the specs look to be: Sadowsky RV4 sunburst alder body maple neck with morado (rosewood) board hum cancelling sadowsky pickups controls are: volume, pickup pan, vintage tone control (with push-pull active/passive switch) and stacked bass and treble (boost only) looks lovely!!
phsycoandy Posted September 19, 2008 Posted September 19, 2008 What difference does the slightly undersized body of the RV series make, and just how undersized is it?

Brother Jones Posted September 20, 2008 Posted September 20, 2008 This is the exact four string equivalent of my Metro 5. Can't recommend them enough.
