Make sure the truss rod is adjusted so there is almost no relief, then if you need more saddle travel the traditional remedy is a shim in the neck pocket.

I hit the Sadowsky site (home --> accessories --> cables), and Roger is offering for sale a ~$100 cable by Klotz, and an OEM'd ~$40 cable. Mighta missed it, but didn't see anything about the Asterope, although I vaguely remember a mention of it some time back.

Right there. I use them myself and they are indeed killer cables(as I mentioned earlier in the thread). Better note clarity, and you don't seem to lose bottom end as you move up the fretboard. I don't like the snake oil usually associated with high end cables, but these are just great!

My church just posted a few videos from our Christmas concert. You can't see me because they had the band and orchestra behind the choir for these couple songs, but I was using my UV-70 and it is cutting through a very busy mix nicely. Please excuse all the mistakes...this was at the end of a LONG day of playing and I was a bit rough lol...

You sound great! And the bass sound is fantastic - I wish bass at my church was as prominent. We have two other bassists and I can seldom hear what they are doing...

Thank You! That was BEYOND amazing. Both tunes are marvelous. Go tell It IS the Christmas tune for 2013; for me.
The vocals are just so amazing; but, it really seemed to me that the singers were drawing a lot of inspiration from the awesome rhythm section work, taking it to the next level. Not to blaspheme, but the people were feelin' the Sadowsky spirit there.
Great
Great.
Your humility is both awesome and unwarranted at the same time.
Damn dude... slammin... completely slammin... NOTHING wrong with these vids EXCEPT that you can't see the band. argh.

Thanks everyone!
Yeah, I'm lucky at this church, they usually have the bass CRANKED in the house. I can pull my in ears out at any time and hear myself coming through the house clearly. They also give me a ton of freedom in playing there...they like the bass to drive the band...

The links on the Accessories page are wrong & need to be updated.
The 15' & 20' Klotz Buy-It-Now links bring you to a Page Not Found message. The 6' Klotz brings you to the Asterope cable. All of the $40 Buy-It-Now(s) bring you to the same $99.95 15' Asterope, as well. The only variable is the connector type.
I noticed the same thing last week when I 1st read the post about the Asterope cable. I was thinking WhereTH is this item on the website?!
Your playing is amazing.
The music and message is uplifting!
If anyone is ever wondering exactly what is meant by the "Sadowsky sits in the mix just right and "cuts through", we just need to link to these videos.
Thanks for posting these!
