Sadowsky PJ5

Sign in to disble this ad
Teal Green metallic PJ5 serial number 3917. This bass has been owned by a few peeps around here, and all have/do rave about this particular bass. There is something almost magical about it.

So then why am I selling..?? I'm broke.. and I don't play as much lately. However; if it doesn't sell it won't break my heart.. and who knows.. I may decide to pull the ad if some of my other gear sells soon enough.

There are a couple of tiny dings on the end of the headstock, they were there when I got the bass. Basically though, the bass is 97% flawless. It will come with the Sadowsky case, and THREE pickguards. Two mint guards one for each orientation of the "P" pups, and one tort guard.

$3000.00 shipped in the 48 states. paypal add $50.00.

pics are thumbnailed

Wow.

You know, I swore up and down I'd never sell my Lull P5...

...that was before I saw this one.

Sheesh...this and a Rob Allen listed on the same day. I may just cry.

I hate to see you sell such a beauty. I hope it moves quickly.

Sado fever (turns me green with envy!)

I love Sados, P/J set-ups and the color green

What's the fretboard?

I may risk divorce for this one! Wifey:

Yes, the strings are green, they are the DR coated strings.

I do believe the fretboard is Brazilian Rosewood..

Green is not my color but I like the reverse P set-up. I'm sure it will find a good home.

Having spent some time with this bass in my greedy lil hands, I can attest to its greatness. Just massive low-mid thickness, and a thinner than normal Sadowsky Neck that is ultra-playable. That, and you couldn't find a better TB'er to deal with. I'm glad your sellin some stuff off, because your office was startin to look like Tom Bowlus' basement.

Bump for a fantastic bass and for a quality seller.

Henry, if I didn't already have a P/J 5, you know I'd be all over it. Someone make this bass a good home!

Tom.

Thanks for all the kinds words fella's. It humbles me.

Of all the basses I own, I KNOW I will regret selling this one. It and my Skjold are the only two basses I've ever played that somehow make me a better player, it just fits me. I'm hoping some of my other stuff sells.. and this one can stay here for a while longer!! However; if it sells.. that's fine too. Someone else will get to play this fantastic bass, and I'll still have my Skjold.

Bass is staying home. Sold enough other stuff to keep it here. My wife even yelled at me when I told her I'd listed it for sale.

Thanks guys!!

Glad you could keep it. I've had my wife get on me when I was thinking about letting some of my favorites go.
