Club Sadowsky!!!

OK.....I.passed along the info to my buddy. I'll hit.you guys up later.
I have NOTHING to do with the sale of this. Its a smoking deal I thought I would pass along. But I will help facilitate it as much as I can.
 
Does anyone own or have played a Metro P Sadowsky?

I was wondering with the preamp bypassed, how close does it come to a traditional P bass sound?
I own a Metro PJ, and I think the P is in the same location as a straight P. I've also owned/played NYC PJs with both the newer and older style P5 pickups. So if that counts...

I'm not an absolute expert on P tone, but it sounds pretty darn close to me. I'd say the newer pickups might have a little more edge than a traditional Fender P, but all the woody fat powerful classic tone is also still there (IMHO), and probably only an absolute expert stickler would be able to pick it out in music and say "wait a sec...". That said, I LIKE that extra edge, so it's a plus for me anyway.

Definitely close enough for me!!
