Sadowsky UV70

Price drop to £1700 £  £1500 for limited time only as I have decided to pull the trigger on another bass!

Olympic White that has aged

Sadowsky case included.

Ash ( I am told) with maple fingerboard, 20 frets, 10” radius, 1 ½” nut, white blocks and binding and thin matte nitro finish

Full size body

Tortoise Pickguard

Sadowsky Hum-Cancelling J-Style Pickups

Well balanced with superb definition at all the right frequencies, these pickups do it all with ease. They work in tandem with the active electronics to produce a wide range of tones to suit any application.

The VTC (Vintage Tone Control) works by rolling off the high end to produce a slighter warmer sound. This is a great adjustment to have when you want to sit a bit more delicately in a mix. It is one of the many finer details that really help to bring out the best in your playing.

There is a small chip in the neck joint that I have tried to show in one of the photos. It was  there when I bought it from BassDirect.

Fabulous bass that sounds terrific fingerstyle as well as slapped. Moving on as I have GAS!

Happy to deliver within 20 m of Cambridge.

Any questions don't hesitate to get in touch.

Nice, just out of interest what strings have you been using on it?

[Alanbass]

Dunlop super bright stainless steel 45 to 105... they seem to work really well with this bass

[SzunaP]

Maple fingerboards comes with ash body,  are you sure, it's alder?

Nice bass, surely a slap monster... 👌

I bought a UV70 last year off of here. It’s an instant keeper. I love the tones and the vtc is just great. 
This looks great... good luck with the sale. 👍🏻 @AndyTravis? 

[Alanbass]

Yep it is a great bass to play and ... starting to have second thoughts about selling!
