It has been brought to my attention that an individual has been e-mailing people who have bid on Sadowsky instruments on eBay to offer them new Sadowsky basses at prices too good to be true. The instruments they claim to have in stock are either in our inventory or have been recently sold by Sadowsky. They are taking photos off of our website claiming they have these basses for sale. Payment is specified as Western Union or MoneyGram.

IF YOU RECEIVE A SOLICITATION TO PURCHASE A SADOWSKY BASS AND THE PRICE IS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE, IT PROBABLY IS!

I WOULD BE HAPPY TO CONFIRM THE LEGITIMACY OF ANY SADOWSKY BASSES OFFERED TO YOU IN THIS MANNER.
