Yep, he's shipping today. I just saw the box in the back of his truck. Besides, you know you want that Sadowsky. You've been aching for it since you sold your last one.

No, but there is another one under consideration, and will probably cause a similar stir if so...

Nope. That may be my one exception to my "don't play it much" rule. I have yet to see another bass from any manufacturer that has that same kind of WCR top. ALL the others are the usual (tho still very beautiful) burls. As far as I've been able to see, it's still 1 of 3 total known to exist, and I even know where the other two are. Our own Jonathan Starr has one, and another close friend of Mike's (and, ironically, a lawyer) has the other.

How about you just pay to send us both to his house and we try to talk him out of it?

Ok, Mike, stop reading now.

Jason, hang on the line...

(Psssst... Jason, that means we go to Hawaii!)
Then, as he's chasing us away from his house, I can yell "NO, WHATEVER YOU DO, DON'T THROW THE SADOWSKY AT US! PLEASE! NO! AND DON'T INCLUDE THE CASE EITHER! THAT WOULD HURT EVEN MORE!" Then, Jason, you can take the hit, and as it bounces off, I catch it, and tell Mike "we just couldn't get him to part with it", but show him a very similar looking instrument up on ebay and split the cash. Free trip to Hawaii and spending cash to boot!

Sound like a plan?

Ok!!!
Stopped!!!

Lemme think on that???
You think it would work???

Tell ya what, go to the airport tomorrow morning, there will be a first class ticket waiting for you.
Don't pay attention to what the lady at the counter tells ya, it's there, trust me.
Just bust your way thru, even if she tries to stop you, just keep going. She a little nuts anyway.

Run to the gate as fast as you can, you don't want to miss your flight now do you?!?!

Oh yeah, those security people running behind you yelling "Stop!!", they're not yelling at you, just keep going, it's something else, some jackpole trying to get an extra bag of peanuts or something- happens all the time- just keep on truckin' lil' buddy, you got a flight in first class to Maui to catch!!!

Oh yeah, dress nice, pastels. Pastels are in fashion this time of year in federal prison...err...I mean Hawaii.

Jason, you do the same k??!?!?

Lemme know how it goes in 10 to 20 fellas.

In fact, if you want to stop by my house on the way, I have some luggage I need you to take to Hawii for me. Don't look inside it. And don't mind the bomb dogs. Just keep running. Nevermind the men with guns. They aren't aiming at you.

Now both of YOU stop reading...

(Mike, if we pull this off, does that mean we get to keep all of their basses? That could fund a LOT of trips to hawaii.)
