Just realized it's been a complete year since I received my custom NYC WL4 from Roger and crew.Awesome run so far!!!!
Thanks Roger!!
One of my favorite Sadowskys!
Got my Metro MV5 on Thursday and I'm loving it very much (too busy playing it to take pics, but they're coming soon). It's strung with Sadowsky Blue Label strings and it sounds great, but just not my sound. I'm considering the Sadowsky flats. My other bass is a Fender AVRI P bass strung with TI Jazz Flats and I love the sound of that bass. How do the Sadowsky's compare to the TI's? Anyone have any experience with both on their Sadowsky bass? Not sure how well the TI's would sound with an active bass.
Thanks. I played a Fender P5 with Sadowsky flats once and really liked them so I'm guessing they should be fine on my MV5.
Also about to get the TH500 based primarily on my TB research although I've got a local guy here who swears by the Streamliner 900 with a Berg HT112ER. Will have to give it a whirl before pulling the trigger!

Able to visit the shop 2 weeks ago and luckily the bodies / neck of y 2 orders just send back to the shop. So I can take some pic and see it in person before sanding / spraying! Both bodies is super feather light weight! Just hit 2.6lbs and 2.9lbs!!! Also, the BE Roasted Maple board and neck just look STUNNING!! CAN'T WAIT!!

Stunning! great grain on both bodies and that BE neck is to die for. Tell me that you chose that beautiful rosewood board for your P5 and we're done.

Cool, now I've noticed that you had B/Wed the other necks. What finish are you going to use for the bodies?

Under 3lbs on a body is crazy light! I can't wait to see the finished basses, those necks are killer.
