haimesy Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 (edited) Hi All Selling this marvellous Sadowsky made in Japan (Metro)in 2008 ,in great condition some light player wear . Ive found myself getting back into playing 5 string again and really enjoying it , so this will hopefully fund a better 5 string bass as I’m finding the string spacing on my 5 suits me better . Its the clearest most defined tone I’ve ever had in a bass and if I was still a gigging bass player it would be going nowhere . Comes with original Sadowsky case weight 4kg Ramp fitted , but easily removed Would consider trade for Fender Jazz Elite or possibly a decent P bass £1700.00 + uk shipping Withdrawn for now ... Thanks Edited May 13, 2021 by haimesy 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

haimesy Posted March 9, 2021 Author Share Posted March 9, 2021 I thought the MV have pickguards .. I could well be wrong .. will amend if anyone can clarify .. Cheers John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mickb1773 Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 Haimsey.. I think your right MS 4/RS4 : no pickguard with Maple/Rosewood Fingerboards MV4/RV4 with Pickguards great basses in live band settings best of luck with sale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scotttelfer Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 Hi. In final photo am I right in seeing a flaw running over the top of the bridge pick up and between it and the neck pick up? Is this under the lacquer or a scratch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

haimesy Posted April 28, 2021 Author Share Posted April 28, 2021 It’s has the clearest tone I’ve had on a bass , pretty low action , no buzz , no dead spots . A great all rounder , which I believe would really come into its own in a live situation . im just so used to my 78 jazz it’s always what I gravitate to ..Hope that’s of help Cheers John 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
