Recommended Posts

Hey

one of my on going projects requires me to tune this bass down nearly all the time so i thought it might make more sense to get a 5 string!


its a totally awesome bass! gorgeous sound and playability etc! so im probably gonna regret offering it up for trade!


.......anyway


see pics

i bought it new in july and its still in brand new condition!

Trade wise all i want is a sadowsky RV5 or an equivalent NYC model! (i would add cash to the deal for an NYC obviously) any colour considered but it must have a rosewood board! i dont want any other make of bass so please dont offer anything else! :)


cheers

:huh:

well a bass may have just come up that i want! but i'd need to buy it as the seller doesnt want another UV70 lol :)

so im now open to cash offers as well as trades for sadowsky 5 strings

whats the price bud?[/quote]


why is everyone afraid to make offers these days?? lol :)


well it cost me nearly £1700 less than 6 months ago! you can get UV70's for around £1600 now due to the VAT changing

see prices here

thats less than the standard models

Chris, just wondering why you were looking for an RV5 as opposed to a UV5, I'd be interested to know.[/quote]


well i prefer the look and feel of the smaller body. thats it really! the UV's are full fender size while the MV and RV's are slightly downsized. :)

Fair enough, thanks for the reply.

Having never had the fortune to play a Sadowsky perhaps you could tell me - does it nail the passive Fender tone?

well!

to be honest thats not exactly what roger sadowsky set out to do with his basses! he intended to improve on the jazz bass sound/look/feel etc and in my opinion he's done a remarkable job! you can get a sound thats pretty close if you use passive mode and the VTC but i'd say if you want a fender jazz bass tone then get a fender jazz bass! if you want a more refined sounding instrument then get a sadowsky
