FS: Sadowsky 24 Fret, 5 String

[lowB_2277]

For Sale only - Sadowsky NYC 24-5

I am the original owner, purchased in Feb. 2004. This is a beautiful looking and sounding, quilted top 24-5. The bass is well balanced and at 8.25 lbs. is a delight to play. As with most Sadowsky basses this instrument will take a ridiculously low set up if you like. There is a small scuff on the back of the neck from a guitar stand and some light swirling but other than that the bass is in excellent condition. (Photos w/ black backdrop are recent - taken in early April)

Those blue LED's would match up nicely with a Genz Benz product and all their little blue LED's on their amps.

This is the sexiest Sadowsky I've ever seen, what a beaut!!!

[VroomVroom]

Bump for an absolute stunner. Trans blue on that top? Perfect! Good luck with the sale, and congrats in advance to the buyer. I've got a Metro M5-24, and there is no substitute for that flavor of tone.

Killer bass.I see we both have the same Sadowsky axes.Would love to add this one and working on it.

I've been a full time studio bassist for the past 18 years so the basses have covered all the situations well.Even the clients that want vintage jazz or precision basses on their CDs opt for the sadowskys after hearing them.Sadowskys offer all the good and none of the bad that I have had to deal with on vintage axes.

That's absolutely stunning. The quilt on that bass is superb. Good luck with the sale.

Does this have the standard 1.875" nut width and 19mm string spacing at the bridge?

[BPotyk]

I think I am in love with this bass! That is stunning!

Nice one..I have owned 2 24-5's. They are great instruments. It definitely proves that Sadowsky is VERY capable of designing his own instrument. Bump for another cool Sadowsky
