4 candles Posted May 13, 2010 Posted May 13, 2010 Howdy Unfortunatly due to financial reasons I am having to thin out my collection. I am privelleged to currently own 2 fantastic 4string jazz basses one being a sadowsky RV4 and the other being an overwater jazz fitted with sadowsky preamp. I love both basses equally and apart from the finish, theres not alot to seperate them. Ive owned the overwater longer so there is perhaps a little more sentiment involved. I really dont wish to part with either but may soon have too, so my question is which one will fetch the highest price and which one would you keep. Look forward to some advice Thanks for reading guys and girls Regards Mark Quote
chris_b Posted May 13, 2010 Posted May 13, 2010 You [i]need[/i] the cash? Put them both up for sale and keep the one that doesn't sell. Quote
Bigwan Posted May 13, 2010 Posted May 13, 2010 You have to get used to the idea of selling one of them first. Then toss a coin. If you're disappointed by the result then go the other way... Quote
dr1 Posted May 13, 2010 Posted May 13, 2010 you should know which one to keep. we never seen your basses nor we know which you feel better. Quote
JTUK Posted May 13, 2010 Posted May 13, 2010 yep..can only go on what they look like unless they have sound clips.. I'd be tempted to keep the Overwater over the Sadowsky and I feel maybe more bass for the buck..but I'd have to see them and even then we have no idea how they sound. Post a pic...but this seems down to you. Quote
BassBod Posted May 13, 2010 Posted May 13, 2010 No one else can tell you...but Overwaters (and most UK makes) will always be "worth-less" compared to a respected/known USA instrument. Not really fair, but that seems to be the market, and has been for as long as I've been aware. There is one obvious exception, but lets not go there again. Quote
