FS / FT: Sadowsky Metro MS5 - Ash / Maple

Sign in to disble this ad
This particular bass has been in and out of my hands (and a few other TBer's, I might add) and in need of new home. I'm really diggin' my new Roscoe Century V and the tighter string spacing / neck profile so the Sadowsky will probably take a backseat for the while.....uncool. This bass needs to be played. Here's the dope:

*Maple neck w/ maple FB
*Ash body, no pickguard or control plate
*Weight - 8.8 lbs
*Pickups - Sadowsky humcancelling w/ volume, blend, bass, treble
*No VTC...sorry!
*Case - original softsided form-fit case
*Condition - very good, 8.5 / 10
*Dunlop straplocks

There's some minor contact dings on the headstock tip, a clearcoat ding on the front (thanks to my BlackBerry!), and some loss of finish on the volume knob. In terms of playability, its 100%. How 'bout some pics?













I'm asking $1625 shipped and will consider all trade offers. I really don't mind trading down as long as I end up with a comfortable, balanced 5 banger...and a little cash from you! I really don't feel like trading up as I have too much high-priced stuff as is. Please PM me with any questions or comments.
