Club Sadowsky!!!

I put up a FT ad in the classifieds but thought someone here might be looking...

I have two brand new sets of Sadowsky Blue Label Nickels (45-130T) that I'd like to trade for the same in lights (40-125T). So if you prefer the regular gauge and have some new lights laying around, I'd be glad to swap ya. Just Blues though. Not looking for an outright sale, other brands or the Black Labels.

Edit: Might go for SS as well.

I looked and I do not have the lights anymore. Good luck!
 
I have to agree with this statement. I was going to sell my Will Lee 4 but after playing my last 3 gigs with it I am just loving the way it cuts through the mix. And how easy it plays. I am glad it didn't sell. It's funny how what's meant to be works out for the better sometimes. At this point I am thinking about selling my Lakland 55 94 and getting a Sadowsky 5 and going all Sadowsky.

Nothing wrong with going ALL Sadowsky, they are some great basses. Funny what you just said about selling. Here is what has recently happened to me. I bought my NYC standard 5 which was my first SADOWSKY bass, after owning it for 3 months i custom ordered a NYC 5 Vintage, this custom order i was gonna mainly use to solo with and things of that nature, well recently i am loving the Standard (My first Sadowsky) for soloing and the NYC Vintage 5 with SC for slap go figure, so they have since swapped jobs. Still love em both. Was thinking about going to the shop and pay to have the action set up IDENTICAL. Love the action on my STANDARD. The NYC is close but still slightly higher than i would like. Perhaps after the HOLIDAYS as i am more than sure the crew is very busy and the last thing on their mind is to adjust string height on a Sadowsky...Cheers.
 
How about some love for some mottling ebony finger boards.

I sit around all day, stalk you guys on the TB Sadowsky thread and sip everyday polish. ( I gulp it or mix it with Vodka on the weekends. )

There is a great video on YouTube of Bob Taylor discussing the ebony situation.



I encourage all of you to watch it.

Wow, what a great and informative video. Thanks for sharing that Roger. Is it safe to say that dark black ebony will now be considered Master Grade?
