Next on the block is this lovely Three Dots JB. These are made in Japan by Yoshi Kikuchi who once headed up Sadowsky's Japanese production before Roger's partnership with Warwick. I've owned a couple of Japanese Sadowsky's and this is easily on a par quality wise, but with a more classic aesthetic. The neck in particular is stunning and it's possible to get a very low action without buzz if desired. The tones are as you'd expect from a top end Jazz bass with a fat sounding bridge pickup, warm neck pickup and a killer slap tone. The bass weighs just under 9lbs and comes with a top quality Three Dots gig bag. 

 

Unfortunately the rear side of the headstock has taken a whack and there is a small piece of wood missing. Luckily you can't see it from the front so it doesn't detract from the eye catching (and possibly poking *ouch*) headstock. 

 

Here's a clip of a similar bass in action -

A few shots from when I restrung this recently. Rotosound Nickels for the matching blue silks 😁

 

Note the top drawer control cavity, CTS pots, Orange Drop capacitor, shielded etc. Also no unsightly routes under the pick guard! 

 

I'm open to offers on this, I have FAR too many basses at the moment.
