Club Sadowsky!!!

[Chef]

Been several years and a bunch of gigs with this bass.
It still kills every time I pick it up.

Heh
It's about "as plain as it gets" I guess, compared to fancy tops, fancy colors, roasted necks and other such options.

Killer bass.

Nothin' wrong with Plain Jane. I prefer Mary Ann to Ginger any day.

You know how I keep saying that natural/black/maple is my rave fave non-fancy combo? You know, like every time you show that bass?

It's about mine too.
It matches my '72 P bass, in that same scheme....

Yum. Even better on a P.

My apologies if this question has been covered...I'm a relatively new "proud father" of two beautiful Metros
Every bass I own is active...but it seems that if I switch to a Sadowsky in the middle of my set, my bass is A LOT louder...with all eq on each bass flat...do all Sadowsky preamps run that much hotter than others? Is there a way to combat this and keep both signals the same?

What do you consider FLAT on your Sadowsky. FLAT is treble and bass set to ZERO.

You could get a radial tonebone or other such thing which would allow you to set separate gain for two basses.
I just tweak the volume on my amp and get back to playin'.

Thank you Roger...yes I was aware of the fact that your preamp is a boost only

Yeah, I saw that too and thought of you! It's a looker!
I'm not into green but I wouldn't mind having it.

Is it gonna go to your place? You know: green.

It's tempting Dude. If I get another Sadowsky, I really would like to have one with the soapbars in the J locations.

 

[roadkill2309]

In with my HPJ!

If that pick guard were black, I'd be planning to steal your bass. Just ask Chef; he knows.

 

[roadkill2309]

Still crazy about this instrument!

Whoo. Same here.
