Has all the growl and tone you expect from a NYC Sadowsky.

I put in Sadowsky Single Coil pickups.

Wow, this bass is making the tour, eh? Real nice bass bump...

Yes, very nice bass. Super low action, perfect neck.

could you show a pic without the pickguard? thank you.

Here you go, I think a Mint guard would look great with the '59 burst.

Sexiest bass on TB!! I'd trade my 60th Ann precision deluxe V in butterscotch with an Aguilar OBP3 & my Nathan East V for this!!! Anyway, free bump for my favorite bass on TB. Wow! Serious GAS now.

Thanks for all the trade offers on this bass, she is a beauty. I own way too many basses, gotta sell.

[moorebass]

Love this bass - I wish mine would sell so I could buy it

[BigOldHarry]

Wow... that's exactly what I've been looking for... Alas, $3400 is more than I have...

[Ronny49]

What a beauty!

yummy

Why the string spacing seems to be uneven?
the G string is much closer to the D string than does the low B to the E string
Improper setup of the bridge?

I guess you're talking about the picture with the PG off. This is probably because the strings are loose. Take a look at the stock photo from the Sadowsky site above and see that everything is perfect.
Good luck with the sale! Beautiful bass.
