    Still available and 4.2kg /9.2lb. It's a 2016 build according to Sadowsky.

    Hi David, 4.2kg / 9.2lb Usual 19mm string spacing indeed. Cheers, Arnold

    Got you

    Hellzero. It's a TRB6P. Neck through. Same preamp, same pickups, same woods. You can argue about the colour but you can't argue about the bass. What is your point?
  9. Arnoldoc
    Looks like it was refinished at some point. But 100% an official TRB6P

    Not sure on the finish. I’ve seen most with translucent flamed maple finishes. I do tend to like white basses so when I saw it I bought it 3 years ago in its current state.

    Thinning out the herd as I favour jazz basses. It's a Tom Stenback bass, not much more to say - probably the best made and most difficult to find bass guitar these days as they're no longer being built. This is a "unicorn" bass as it's only 1 of 2 "Precision" style basses ever made, originally for Scott Devine from Scott's Bass lessons. Instrument is in pristine condition; only used in the studio. Roasted Alder body Roasted Flamed Maple Neck Rosewood fingerboard Neck binding 34'' scale Drop D tuner Lundgren Pickup with 4 positions - 1) neck single coil (50s P bass); 2) bridge single coil; 3) Humbucker in parallel (like vintage Yamaha BB basses); 4) Humbucker in series (traditional P bass wiring) making it a very versatile "Precision style" bass. Price is fixed and no trades except for a 5 string Stenback jazz bass. Available in London or Spain (Madrid/Valencia). You can see a demo in here: This is my feedback link - I've sold many high end instruments in here

    Bought a '66 jazz bass from Alex. Communication was great from the beginning and swiftly reached a deal. We met in person to do a quick inspection. Alex is a not only a friendly guy but also a vintage bass connoisseur so we also had a good chat about vintage basses. Cheers, Arnold

    Did mention some were from the previous seller :). Let me known if it's an issue for you and I'll change them.

    Selling my superb USA MTD 535-21. 5th MTD I've had. Amazing crafstmanship and playability but I'm more partial to Fender type basses. *Ash body *Flame maple top *Maple neck *Rosewood fingerboard *Zero fret *Honeyburst *Bartolini pickups and preamp (proprietary) *3.8kg / 8.4lb. Lightweight particularly for an ash body. *Almost mint condition. and the new cost would be £7,000 / 8.000€ I travel regularly between UK and the EU so can potentially ship from either location. I prefer a straight sale but might be open to the right trade - only a Stenback 5. This is my feedback and pics below. Used some of the previous seller's pics too and can send more detailed ones if needed.

    Body should be ash as Metros are not customisable. Is it still available?

    PMd
  19. Arnoldoc
    No. I was pointing to the video for sound references. Mine has the exact same specs but is an October 2022 model and I have currently in the US.
  20. Arnoldoc
    Yes, correct, and as such, reflected in a much lower price than it would cost to buy one directly and ship and import it to the UK/Europe. I might be able to deliver it myself within the UK in a couple of months if someone is happy to buy it and wait.

    Hope you find your bass. Hermes (now Evri) also stole a Sadowsky bass from me. They've been completely unresponsive and difficult to reach and unfortunately the seller, Bax-shop.co.uk, has been completely uncooperative. I'll create a separate topic on it. Good luck!
  23. Arnoldoc
    I've now checked and it's around $200 for 3-4 day shipping with insurance on top. Payment via bank transfer or Paypal Friends & Family.

    It's supply and demand, basic economics, determining current prices. How much will it cost you to have one in 3 years is irrelevant if you want one today. It's not too different from buying a vintage Fender (how do you determine "value") and I presume it's going to be the same for Stenback basses - most people will be unable to get accepted on the current 4-5 year waiting list. Think it's a very fair price compared to the ones on offer in the US. Less than what it would take to ship and import one into Europe in 3 years time. I did have a Jazz 5 from them which was very nice, although I do think their P basses are their top product.
  25. Arnoldoc
    Wow, 3 years already!
