Man, there's never been a point where I said to myself "I really wish my Sadowsky had a mid control". IME/IMO the midrange is there naturally in Roger's basses, and anything else can be added with the amp's EQ. I remember Roger saying that he thought a simple 2band pre would most always sound better than a 3 band, and I've found that to be true for my needs. IMO the EQ on modern bass amps is much more natural sounding and effective than any onboard pre. One of the things I like about Roger's basses is I DON"T need to tweak knobs all night to get different tones. I leave the bass/treble knobs alone and vary the blend and VTC.

I'm sure if Roger agreed to it that it'll sound awesome. Can't wait to hear feedback.
