For Sale: Sadowsky NYC Vintage 5-String

Sign in to disble this ad
FINISH | Vintage Tint
BODY | Chambered Alder
FINGERBOARD | Maple, 12" Radius, 1 3/4" Nut Width, Vintage Tint
PICKGUARD | Tortoise
HARDWARE | Chrome
PICKUPS | Sadowsky Single-Coil
WEIGHT | 8.75 lbs.
PREAMP | Sadowsky Preamp with Vintage Tone Control
STRINGS | D'Addario Stainless (45-130 Tapered)

AND... I will throw in a brand new set of Sadowsky Black Label Stainless, 45-130.

This is #4894, delivered to me new in October of 2007. It's in excellent condition, with only a few minor dings and imperfections, which are to be expected from a bass used primarily on the road for the past 2 years. I would comfortably rate it an 8.5 out of 10. I even kept the plastic protection film in place over the pickguard, battery cavity, and pickups until just recently. The one on the back of the body remains.

It is very light, very resonant, and of course it plays like a dream.

The dings:
1.) One on the back of the headstock near the B string tuning gear.
2.) One on the back of the neck at the first fret.
3.) One very small one on the front of the body near the end of the
chrome plate. It's only noticeable upon very close inspection, and
the finish is not compromised.

I tried to capture all three in the photos. The worst of the three is the one on the back of the headstock, but none of them affect the playability of the bass. It truly is a beautiful bass... a real work of art from the Sadowsky team.

There's basically no fretwear, and everything is in perfect working order. It ships with the original case and paperwork. Shipping cost will be based on the destination (shipping from Nashville), but I can only ship within the CONUS.

Email me with any questions at: mebass5@bellsouth.net

I will email more pictures to serious inquiries only please.

Price: $2,800.00. Negotiable.

Thanks For Looking.

Very small blemish on the front. It's barely noticeable.
