joe_bass Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 (edited) I really, really don't want to be doing this, but needs must due to cash problems. I was going to put my 91 'wick up for sale but after a good noodle earlier I've realised I can't do it & that if I did part with it it would be a lot, lot harder to replace at a later date. Therefore up for possible sale is my Sadowsky Metro in trans blue with a maple board. It is one hell of a bass, I bought it from the forum's very own Gareth only a few months ago & at mint condition. It has 2 very, very small nicks on it, 1 below the bridge (I was changing strings in a bit of a hurry) & the other on the tip of the headstock (the annoying type where you have no clue where it came from!) I like to be thorough when offering gear up for sale so this is the only reason I mention these. It could pass for new otherwise. It's a bloody nice bass to play, just feels right with a nice low action & you can achieve some great tones out of that famous Sado' preamp. Very bright & punchy! Had many compliments regarding this beauty. [u][b]SOLD[/b][/u] Joe Edited September 1, 2011 by joe_bass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joe_bass Posted August 8, 2011 Author Share Posted August 8, 2011 Cheers chaps. That one photo really doesn't do justice. I've just sat down playing through my 91 Thumb 5, 'Ray 5 & the Sadowsky. I was hoping to fill the gap with the other 2 which would leave me feeling not as bad about selling this. It isn't happening! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
