I just bought one but I had to settle on black with no VTC, now I'm bummed because I like the burst so much better.

The only 5 string I've ever felt really comfortable with, exactly like this one, wish I could afford it.
Bump for beauty, but you'll miss it.

And that, a few TB ladies and mostly TB gentlemen, closes this one out. The good Dr. Funk will be taking delivery of a fine, fine Sadowsky M5-24. And remember: she's not a bass, she's an electric lady! Thanks again, Greg. Much obliged, and a pleasure doing business with you.
