Hey, on this Thanksgiving Day, I want to thank the Japanese Metro crew for all of their excellent work. We love all of their work but all too often they're nameless and faceless to us. Roger, I hope they all know they're work is highly valued. Domo arigatou gozaimashita! It would be cool to see them post here from time to time as well.

Long overdue pic of the metro I got here on TB. My best TB purchase ever, I think.

It's been awhile since I posted, and I thought I would share this little story from my gig on wed. night (Thanksgiving Eve).

I have an very light metro Will Lee (seen here) http://www.sadowsky.com/stock/view/m4836.html

that is my regular "go to" for all my gigs. While wrapping it up at the end of the night, my guitar player was helping me load out.(A rarity, I can assure you.)
He hustles over to me carrying my Sadowsky case and says "Dude where's your bass?" and he holds out the case...now I know I put the bass in the case minutes before this. (Still, there was a moment of panic) I picked up the case, and just had to laugh...of course it was still there...he just never expected a bass to be as light as that..I had to unzip the case and show him it was indeed there.

Has this happened to anyone before? I know there has been a few times where I've grabbed my case for practice or a gig, where I have to stop and partially unzip it to make sure the bass is still inside. God I love my Sadowsky's

Yep, some of my friends were complaining about their Les Pauls weighing around 9lbs and I had a good laugh... with my Metro PJ right at 9.5lbs it sits comfortably. I told them to get Sadowsky straps to remedy the problem. Guitar players with their light guitars and tiny strings...

Looks like someone snatched up #6234 already!

Nice Metro Will Lee! It's the spittin' image of the one I just bought a few months back. I should probably get around to weighing mine, but it's lighter than most, if not all, of the other basses I've owned.
