Like i said the only thing that i felt uncomfy with the Modern 24 was in standing position .. the neck felt an extra 2" longer or so and made me twist my wrist in a way that does not happen with my 21 fret NYC.... So i sold my 24....
+1Kirk.....Not sure why you experienced this. The bass horn is the same length on the 24F as the 21F. The extra 3 frets extend into the body, so the neck length from the handing position on a strap should be exactly the same.

I don't feel any difference in hanging balance or first position reach on my 24 fret vs my 21, and I'm especially sensitive to that because I'm only 5,9 and have smallish hands.

Beautiful bass, Jose.
Here are the long awaited, much anticipated money shots of my gorgeous NYC. Sadowsky club number 444 (thanks, Fran). Looks like we are doing alright up here in New England!
