This is a feeler to see what interest I get. I love this bass, but honestly it rarely gets played, and tends to sit in the case most of the time. I don't really want to sell it, but I need some house repairs and it's just hard to justify such a nice bass sitting around unused. Bass weighs 8.7 lbs. On the lighter side for a Metro. Does have VTC. Comes with the standard Metro case that's seen better days but still works fine. Pickguard was originally white but I sprayed it copper metal. Finish is very durable you really can't tell it wasn't made that way.
Seafoam Green is a color no longer offered, and not that common. Kind of unusual.
I would consider a trade + cash for lightweight basses >8 lbs. Just need a deal with a bit of cash involved.
I contacted Kevin at the Sadowsky shop and he said the bass was a 2008 model from the serial number.
Straight sale I would like $1650 shipped. Any trade offers would need to be 4 string/fretted only.
Here are pics:
I'll get some better pics taken in outside light, but these are the ones I had on my computer. Seafoam green is a bit difficult to capture correctly indoors.
Okay, here's a couple of new pics. Took this outside today in the afternoon light, but I think the indoor pics probably capture the color the best. It does change depending on the light.
