TRADE FEELER - SADOWSKY MV5

So........

I traded for a Sadowsky Mv5 - serial # M298 - Black on Black.
The previous owner (a tb'er) had installed Lollars and had Roger install VTC.
I am still having trouble moving to 19mm spacing, coming off a stingray 5 and my Brubaker with 18MM.

Also, I think I prefer a rosewood neck and fralins or nordies.

I am going to keep working with it but ultimately want to be comfortable.

Like to swap for a Lull M5v with 18mm
Also interested in MM classic Ray 5
I would also be interested in RV5 or Modern 5
Would consider going back to stingray 5 for the right one plus cash

email me with offers and for more pics kobadeals@comcast.net



I'll be working with it every night so maybe I will grow into it within a week or 2

neck

Heres a pic of back of neck. There is a spot that is a little worn through the finish, just from use.

Early one for sure. I think 2003 NAMM was the launch.
