Sign in to disble this ad
Bass is sold pending final payment!
My Olympic White RV4 HP/J with VTC is for sale. I hate to sell this bass, but I am playing my 5's just about full time now and I need to sell this to help fund my latest purchase, a UV70 - 5.
This bass is in great shape, with the excepton of a couple of cosmetic issues that were present when I bought it. I have attached a couple of pictures, one ding on the end of the headstock and a couple of very slight dings on the top bout. The pickguard has some fine fingernail scratching consistent with being played. The bass has been played, but I would say it is 8/10th's at least. It sounds great and is extremely versatile with the P/J setup. It came with Dunlop strap locks when I bought it. It is fairly light, weights in at 9.6 lbs. Included in the sale is the Sadowsky light weight case.
I am looking for $1,700 price reduced to $1,600 or a reasonable offer for the bass, plus shipping to the CONUS, PayPal echeck or USPS money order.
I need to sell this, so sorry, not interested in trades.
Thanks for looking!           [/quote]

| | | | if you turn it on to just the P pickup, how close is it to a fender precision? like, slap tone...
I was looking at fenders but they just don't have the quality, what are these like? I've never really seen them |

The measurements from the bridge to the P pickup is the same as the Fender (I measured it) and if you roll the blend to 100% P, it sounds like a P. I don't slap, so can't comment. The J pickup adds quite a bit of flexibility to this bass, it can cover just about anything you run into.
As far as info about Sadowsky, I am biased, all my main basses are Sadowsky. Here is a link to the Sadowsky Club here on TB, explore and educate yourself! Club Sadowsky (Part 13)

But I have a P/J (great bass!), and got "inspired" to slap (at probably an inappropriate time) at a live gig recently. Here's what it sounds like: http://zebb.info/20100206_LastDance_LaGrange.mp3
The fun starts at about 2:29 - I'm using mostly P pup, direct signal panned center, '68 Bassman miced in right channel  |

Endorsing Artist: FEA Labs Effects | | Join Date: Jun 2004 Location: los angeles, CA | | | I have a Metro PJ5. About the perfect bass. I actually have considered picking up a PJ4 but I incorporate the B a fair amount up high on the neck so it isn't a priority.
imho the Sadowsky PJ config is the true "swiss army bass" of tone. I vastly prefer it to the JJ setup, as I find it has more body and kick. Plus you can roll it forward and get a very good pure P tone. If you want, you can put it in passive mode for a bit more warmth. The combination of the VTC and bass/treble boost EQ gives you a lot of room to play.
I have ordered up a NYC PJ5 for a second bass and to drop a little weight. They kick arse... |

Don't really need to sell it, so I will wait around until somebody that can appreciate this great bass wants it! Thanks!
