Sadowsky PJ 5 £2290 London / Spain

[Arnoldoc]

Selling my Sadowsky PJ 5 Metroline (Made In Japan which many seem to prefer before production was shifted to Germany). Downsizing my collection, and mostly play jazz basses these days. No trades.

 

*Alder body

*Rosewood fingerboard

*Nordstrand Pickups

*Sadowsky preamp - Volume, Pickup Pan, Passive Tone Control, Bass/Treble

*Olympic White

 

Everything in great working order, great playability with lots of fret life left. Some cosmetic dings on the back/side of the body.

 

Can ship from London or Spain.  GBP 2,290 / 2.600 EUR.

Hi Arnoldo

Lovely bass - could you advise the weight please? I presume the string spacing is the usual Sadowsky 19mm?

Thanks

Did this bass sell? I too would like to know the weight. Also what is the number stamped on the back of the headstock? I'm curious what year this bass is.

Thanks

Is the jazz pickup single or hum canceling ?
