I wanted to get this up for sale before I changed my mind...
I have for sale a brand new Sadowsky UV-70 4 string in a very cool (and unique) vintage Sonic Blue finish. I just bought this new a couple of weeks ago and it has never left my house. It is in absolutely mint condition and comes with the standard Sadowsky lightweight case and Vintage Tone Control (VTC). I replaced the stock white pickguard with a new white pearloid Sadowsky replacement guard and both guards will be included.
For those of you not familiar with these basses, the Sadowsky Ultra-Vintage '70s Metro basses feature a full-size body, bridge pickup in '70s location (about 1/2" closer to the bridge), and a fingerboard with blocks and binding. This model has an alder body and a rosewood board with white blocks and binding.
Why am I selling this you ask? My original thought was to buy the Sadowsky and sell my 71 Jazz, but after playing them side-by-side, Ive decided to stick with the original. The neck on my 71 is just too good. I realize Im going to lose some money on this deal, but its going to be a great deal for someone.
Price is $1999 + shipping payable through PayPal or a US Postal Money Order. Just PM me or shoot me an e-mail at [email protected] for a shipping quote, or if you have any additional questions.
The only trade I may consider would be for a mid to late 70's Rickenbacker 4001 in great condition (or a newer 4001 C64). I'd consider any color, except Jet-Glo.
For the time being I have attached a picture from the dealer I purchased it from (taken with the original pickguard). I will take some additional pics tonight and get them posted.
Thanks for looking!
