    Update - Very interested in a RV5 or Lull M5V w/ rosewood

    So the quest for my perfect bass continues. After many, many I have come upon this Sadowsky R5 24. I love the way it feels and plays. So now I am fine tuning and taking a shot here on tb nation. This bass is a beautiful trans blue, I am a burst type guy, maybe even white.

    I am throwing this out there in the case that someone with a Sadowsky R5 24 59 burst / natural / maybe white........may want to trade for this beautiful trans blue bass.

    When I got the bass it had a bart pre amp in it. I just got the bass back from the shop and I had a brand new sadowsky pre amp w/ vtc put in so it is original again.

    A few very very small flaws from regular play.

    Bass MUST have a rosewood neck and I would prefer a modern R5 24 but will talk about RV5's

    This bass is trans blue, can't really see that in the pic but you can see the wood grain through the blue finish. Really nice!

    I have $2000.00 into the bass and am only looking for a fair trade.

    There you have it, what are the chances.....

    I have been told that trans blue on an R5 24 is a rare color

    You have 90% of what you want covered. Send the body to Pat Wilkins, and have it finished ANY way you want. His work is fabulous, and for a few hundred dollars, you'll have exactly what you are looking for. http://www.wilkinsguitars.com/finishing.htm
