Can the preamps on Metros be wired Volume/Volume instead of Volume/Blend?

They can, but you would have to have that done after you receive the instrument. One of the things that keeps the cost lower on the MetroLine is that there is no custom ordering, other than model and finish.

Never mind! It's going away.

I updated the software on the Forum page last week and we lost the entire thing.....there has not been that much activity on it so I am letting the forum go.....in many ways, I consider the Talkbass Club Sadowsky to be the real Sadowsky Forum.

Hope everyone is OK with that!

No offense to the time spent on the Sadowsky forum, but I like the idea of just having one forum to deal with, and right now, Talkbass is the only forum I really have any time for, so I'm fine with it.

I am the proud owner of #4162, a USA Vintage 5.

I am curious why there are not that many fretless Sadowsky's out there? I am considering ordering one, but am a bit confused why they do not seem to be that popular. Anyone own one who can give a review?

[Holdsg]

I had forgotten that other forum even existed.

We make as many fretless basses as we get requests for. We tend to not make too many lefties or fretless basses for our stock inventory but we make plenty on special order. Look a little earlier in this thread for Ken Fiester's new white fretless.

Back in with a killer piece.

Couple of shots from Sunday.

The harmonica player only had a few keys with him, so they kept calling all these blues standards in unusual keys. Had to transpose on the fly...

Thanks for giving it to us while active Roger.
I was wondering if there was a possibility of transferring my descriptive post on "back of neck finish removal" to TB for future reference. Never know - might help someone down the line sometime. I have screen shots of it that I could post but it would be an honour for me to have it come from your site. If this is not appropriate, I am happy to send an email on request to anyone interested in the future.
Your call pal.

[Sadowsky]

Thanks, Blair.

If you have your original post, send it to me.
We might be able to include it on the "support" section of our site.

That sounds cool. I'll give it a try later tonight Roger. I could even re-type it from the screen shots if they come accross too small to read properly for the email. Maybe a pic or 2 as well.
BTW - You have NO idea how happy I am to have done that work on the neck. It's still slides like teflon!

Very cool!

[Chef]

"Sadowsky forum crashed/I hope everyone is ok with that"

Of course, that's your call.
I will say two things though:

1) a dedicated forum allows individually threaded topics to be searched and contributed to more easily than searching a 50 part mega-thread here, for specific info
2) As you know Roger, your voice as a commercial user is a little limited here. your own forum has "greater freedom of speech" for you, personally, in this case.

Just a couple things to think about.

[Sadowsky]

Good points, Chef.

Assuming we start over with a new forum, can anyone suggest a good reliable forum software to use?
