Details

Sadowsky Metro JJ 5 with maple neck and fret board. Sadowsky VTC preamp. Just a fantastic bass with a huge sound. It plays like butter. Frets, neck & headstock are in excellent condition. Has strap locks & comes with a Levy's leather strap. 8 lbs. 11 oz.

Overall it's just a great bass. It has a chip on the top edge and a couple of small dings on the back (none are visible from the front). There is a small line in the clear coat near the controls (see pictures).

I bought this bass a few years ago from a fellow TB'er thinking I'd make this my #1 bass. I've been really struggling deciding to sell or not, but decided it's time to go to someone who will play this more than I did. I have decided to stick to mainly to my 4-string P basses & my Valenti 5. Not looking for any trades as I've got too many basses as is.

Comes in the Sadowsky case (in great shape all zippers work). It even has the original paperwork.

Shipped insured to the lower 48 states.

What are the issues?
1. The photos listed is not the current condition of the bass. The bass strings in the photo looks also most new. The actual strings on the bass are rusted.
2. The preamp has a wiring issue at the input jack. I will need to send the bass to my guitar tech for repair.
3. One of the strap locks is super glued on the bass. There's no mention of this in the add or display in the photos posted.

Is it just that you can't remove the Strap lock? or is it(The glue) visible on the paint etc....
Also, I would send a PM to the seller.

Yes and Yes...The lock appears permanently in place now and visible when you flip the bass over. Again, we can not see in the photos posted.

PM sent.

UPDATE: @gguillo and I discussed the items listed in the previous post and reached an agreement that is beyond fair. I look forward to doing business with you in the future. Thanks for everything @gguillo.
