I just cant decide if I want the Will Lee or a vintage with the Will Lee neck. So far, I don't use the hipshot or mid-boost much.

Am I crazy to not just go Will Lee even if I don't use them? I guess my other wzy of thinking is keeping it cleaner so to speak.

22 frets.....cant go wrong there.
Extra low notes if needed.....cant go wrong there.
Mid boost when needed.....cant go wrong there.

Ordering a Will Lee Signature Bass.....cant go wrong there! :D
 
OK guys - I cracked the box!
It's been quite a day & a LONG day & it's bed time (can't believe I said that at this hr)
So all I can offer right now is a couple pics taken under florescent lights. Not the best but not bad considering the poor light. Will get some more up later today. Took a truck load of 'em but only a few worth posting. Will do some carpet shots in daylight soon.
I am absolutely overwhelmed with this bass & will comment later as well. Thank you Rob LoPrinzi (dragonbass) for your superb craftsmanship. I am HONOURED. I've only managed some hand holding - being the 1st date & all :D ,but I'm here t' tell ya people, the neck on this puppy is beyond belief!!! If you are a P player - get yourself a SADOWSKY P-BASS w/ a P neck. End of story.
I also wouldn't trade my no-tint maple for it's weight in gold. Pics can't do it justice. It makes the rosewood radiate with it's red colour.
The mint PG also is PERFECT w/ the 59 burst & rosewood. I'll try to get the colour right in a pic eventually.
It weighs 7.70 lb & the balance is just fine. I have only played it acoustically so far & the tone of the wood is astonishing!
There's so much to say - being my 1st Sad' - & trust me - I'll get around to it bros. LOL
I better shut up now or I'll start babbling.
See ya later guys.
Blair.

Blair, It makes me very happy that your new bass fulfills all your expectations (could it be any other way being a Sadowsky?). If you're in love now, wait until you play it for a few months. :bassist:

congrats amigo.

What's the difference between Antique Shoreline Gold and common variety Shoreline Gold?

Will it be kinda like this:

...Great bass... have lots of fun... mine should be in a delivery van somewhere.... can't wait....
Can't wait to see some pics of that beauty Pablo!

nice! (sorry, you can post as many pics as you want, it doesn't get much better than the one with Roger!)
You got it Mike! Comin' right up - 3 at a time.

I'd say really nice... and not just the pics, but DAYUM, I just LOVE the classic look... as pretty much all here so well know. :)
I love what it does to me every time I look at it too. Don't imagine THAT'S gonna wear off any time soon Vic. You're gonna have to give me a lesson in pic takin' though. ;)

Vic, you said it!! That bass is just perfect!!!! Love the whole thing!!!! Enjoy it Blair!!!!!!
Your journey is just in "kickoff" at the moment NOLA. The fun is just startin' bro! Do it!

I bet this bass would sound killer with Stainless Steel Blue Label strings!!
