FS: Sadowsky RV4 Oly White - Tort

PICS

Just picked up a Sadowsky 5 string so this one gets bumped off the playlist. 9lbs, VTC, perfect balance and sits perfectly in the mix. Above are some temp pics until I get time for a proper photo shoot...

Includes Sadowsky Ultralight Case (All case candy...) and just installed Sadowsky Blues...

You won't find a sweeter looking or better playing Metro, so save yourself some time if you really want to try a Sadowsky.

This is the one...

It's stock, so it's a basic Metro RV4...

FINISH: Olympic White
BODY: Alder
FINGERBOARD: Morado, 12" Radius, 1 1/2" Nut Width
PICKGUARD: Tortoise
HARDWARE: Chrome
PICKUPS: Sadowsky Humcancelling J
PREAMP: Sadowsky Preamp with Vintage Tone Control
STRINGS: SBS45 • Blue (Stainless Steel 45-105)

$1675 shipped CONUS - Paypal eCheck or postal money order...

I'm frankly surprised that this hasn't been snagged up. I have one just like it and I wouldn't offer mine for sale at that low of a price.

But I wouldn't sell mine anyway since it is a real keeper.

I too have a RV4, OLY WHT, and she's a keeper!

Good luck w/ the Sale!

Thanks, what's amazing is the number of TB members making offers of $1100 or less......I saw a program on condo vultures in Florida and thought of them...

Everyone is tight on cash right now but I'm not going to help devalue all the other Sadowskys listed...$1700 is FMV for a bass of this quality/age...

WOW! You've got to be kidding, right? $1100 or less? That is ballsy! Just insane! Your price is on the low side if you ask me.

The Oly white Sadowskys just don't show up on the used market all that often. I searched for several months for mine and ended up having to chase down the seller for mine. And I gladly paid more than you are asking for yours. And I am certain that the seller still has seller's remorse on letting it go.

Just be patient, a buyer will come along that will be more than happy to jump on your reasonable asking price.

Someone may call BS on this, but if someone local played my Sadowsky OLY WHT RV4 w/ SAD SC's and offered me full price for a new RV4, I would not sell it! My RV4 really feels like it was built for me....fits like a glove! Great tone, great feel, a great fit and finish!

Roger and company puts out an excellent product! Be patient, someone will get this lovely bass at what is already a very good price!

As I wrote, I don't think you will find a better deal on TB right now...the bass is in like new shape...
