I think that head has a really clean, classy look to it. I hear they have a clean, classy sound as well. It's kinda too bad they're not being made anymore, though it'd be too rich for my blood.
 
I've posted enough pics of the two new Sadowskys I got late last year, so this time I'm going to feature Blackie, who arrived in April 2005. She's acquired a home-made version of the Sadowsky Vintiquity finish. I sanded the back of the neck myself, but the rest of the road rash is incidental, accumulated from 5+ years of heavy use.

It certainly doesn't have the mojo of worn finish checked nitro as on vintage Fenders and genuine Sadowsky Vintiquities, but even so I think it's very cool -- and I will never ever sell this bass, so resale value is irrelevant.
