I recently acquired a very nice NYC JJ 5 with single coils from a fellow TBer. It's a great bass - everything the previous owner said and more - but I have found that the 1 7/8" at nut neck is not working out for me.
I will post my own photos, but here is the thread from the previous owner with his photos and details:
NYC Sadowsky 5 JJ SC PUs 59 'burst
The TB'er I got it from was able to take a lot of close-ups to show any blemishes, which is great, but it quite frankly looks much better in person. I think he must have touched it up a bit as it's really hard to find some of the finish flaws. I especially like the top, as I think the flame gives it a very classy, understated look. Just my opinion, of course.
I'm asking $2950 shipped & insured CONUS. PayPal works for me, but I can make other arrangements if needed.
Although I would prefer an outright sale, I would consider the following in a trade deal. Weight is a big issue for me so lighter is better:
- Sadowsky NYC 4 String
- Roscoe LG, SKB, Century Signature
- MTD USA
- Modulus Quantum 6
- Lakland USA Bob Glaub, Duck Dunn or 55-94
- Zon USA
