Club Sadowsky!!!

A couple of shop shots of the 'unborn' for interest sake -

No Real News from me.

Sold my RV5, as I have alder/rw basses that "do that vibe better."

My MV5JJ continues to be my main thing,
and the MV5PJ is nice in the toolbox, but, not a front line bass most of the time.
 
The shop is 45 minutes from home and 5 minutes from the office. I would prefer walking in and A / B the alder and an ash PJ before I buy. Doesn't make sense to buy from a dealer when I can buy direct without having to ship. I make it a point not to go to the shop unless I need strings , and I don't really need a NYC , a Metro fits my needs. I fight the urge to go to the shop at least 3 times a week
 
Do you guys ever hit a low D and its just so gloriously perfect sounding that it brings a tear to your eye? That happened to me last night ;) Sadowsky = pure awesomeness. It really is remarkable how terrific these basses sound in a mix.

Absolutely, I know what you mean.
I use the low D at the end of 'I Feel Good' for a big finish by using my drop D tuner on my ash/maple MV4.
:bassist:
 
The update Sadowsky stock list just came out...I am GAS'ing...what's new right? Perhaps one of my Dowsky brethren has moved a late model J and can share with me what it brought? I know, the For Sale Feeler is what I am supposed to do...risking being chastised by TalkBass big brother I suppose. Anyway, it's Oly White Ash, flame board with ebony blocks, weighs right at 8 lbs. and except for a tiny blemish on the side of the head stock it's in perfect shape with normal non-gigging player wear. Welcome any all comments/opinions. Thanks!

Love my Sadowskys across the fretboard. A properly intonated low B sounds great from the nut to well above the 12th fret.
