Details

Attention all bass amp lovers and connoisseurs, up for trade only are two flagship heads and an outstanding preamp that represents some of the best bass amps the industry has to offer.

PLEASE NOTE: Shipping rates are high here in Canada via Canada Post or USPS. This is why I refuse to include shipping cost in my prices. I will gladly provide you with the package dimensions + weight and you may provide a FedEx or UPS barcode if you're able to get business discounts. I don't own a business and have to pay standard rates.

UPDATE: Sadowsky SA200 and DB751 are both on hold!

Still the best amp I have ever heard. The downside when I owned it was with the big shock rack it weighed close to 90 lbs. WAY too much for these old bones to carry down a flight of stairs at the end of the night. I kept it a while, but only used it live twice. IMO the holy grail of bass tone. Someone will be smiling ear to ear with this one.

Too bad you’re not selling.

It's too bad there isn't anything in the Classifieds I'd really like to buy right now.
With asking for trades I get access to stuff that isn't listed.
It also tends to bring out creativity in the market too.......where people will actually buy or trade items they have in order to get something I'm interested in.

If I was in Ontario I think I would've ended up with that or the DB751. I live in Canada so it's even harder to resist. That and the wife would probably stop talking to me.

Yep, stupid rare amp. Just think, if there was only 100 made the first round.....that's only about 2 per U.S. state available. I know some more were made....but say it was 200 total.....so 4 per U.S. State.....but that's for the entire planet! I'm pretty lucky to have experienced two of these amps this past summer. One of course is sold and gone.....so this one is the only one I have folks. Some would ask, why would I consider letting go of something like this? In order to get something great, you have to offer something great. It's that simple.

Man that Sadowsky SA 200 looks like new. I'm guessing you took real good care if it. What year was that made?

You can thank a friend of mine. It was originally his up until this summer.
He bought it from a guy in NYC.

As this one came from the first batch of 100....it was built back in 2006.
New High End Tube Bass Amplifier from Sadowsky
You can always get in touch Roger Sadowsky too...he'll likely be able to confirm further.
