So.... a long time coming this was... I started a thread, should I get one (obviously the bc community did sod all to quench my GAS😂) should I not, of course I should was the general consensus. Do I need one, errrr, yes of course. 
This little beauty popped up before lockdown and I’ve been waiting patiently.... 

Its a UV70, in natural. The build quality, jazz neck and sound just ooze quality. There’s not a mark on it, I believe it’s a 2016.... and I love it. 
 

and there’s more..... they are like buses.... 

I also did a bit of a trade last week and acquired a rather nice Fender Marcus Miller jazz, a set of superbrights  later and this really nails that miller tone (but just like the flea signatures the miller signature does not automatically make me sound like him 🤔🤔😬)

My guitarist just congratulated me on buying the same bass, twice. 😂😂

Well that’s just greedy. Let me relieve you of the Sadowsky to make you feel better  .

Enjoy, you lucky duck.

I know right. My missus said that!! The greedy bit obviously there was no mention of any relieving! 

Thanks. I’ll Certainly  try. 👍🏻

TBH, it was your GAS thread that started me looking at Sadowskys again and now I’ve caught it! I still have my eye on a used, 5 string Metro, which I don’t need. Oh, the horror!

So you’ve got a Sadowsky which is kinda a Fender copy, and a Fender copy of a Sadowsky modified Fender?

So, the Sadowsky only looks like a Fender, a nice one, but there the similarities finish... sounds awesome...

Yes to the fender copy of a sadowsky modified fender 😂

I tried the Will Lee. Was lovely no doubt about that but I preferred the UV, has a more vintage tone (to my ear) although the finish on the WL was/is beautiful!

Sorry!!! 😂 I know a man selling a gorgeous 4 string Will Lee...

Pfft. Miller fanboys pfft.

Trust a bloody guitarist to think those two basses look remotely alike! 

Congrats. There is always a buzz off a new bass. But that feeling of utter indulgence when getting two is something special.
