Club Sadowsky!!!

[pickles]

The depth is very important but just as, maybe more, is the carve on the shoulder of the neck. The shoulder carve can make a narrow neck feel wide and a wide neck feel narrow. I think the NYC's have a nicer shoulder than the Metro's which give them a chunkier feel.

Thats an issue of preference not quality. Some people think a chunkier neck gives better tone. With an NYC you can get it made however you want. With a metro you get the production standard designed to please the largest possible number of people.

I don't believe any statements were made to correlate chunky necks to inferior quality.

Ok. Well just FYI, you sound like you are saying metros are lower quality than NYCs.

 

[WorktheWood]

I do think they are lower quality but not because they have chunkier necks

at least you could wish us Happy New Year!

 

[Chef]

Hey: happy new year!

I still have my trsuty MV5 and it still kicks it. But the new forum software means threads "drift off my feed" if I don't keep on top of them.
I searched this one back up, and it was on page three of the search results?
weird.

 

[Holdsg]

thanks Chef!

This looks just like my 93 NYC. You have great taste sir! When did black hardware become available on Metros? I must have been living under a rock.

 

[Chef]

I didn't think it was, unless you change it out.

 

[Luckydog]

K, that would make sense. Didn't consider that possibility.

Cool, Roger! Thanks for posting. I'm loving the Metro I bought last month (#7793), and hope to get up to the shop for a visit in the coming year.

as far as i know black hardware is not available on metros,, i bought it from someone who had black hardware on his usa sadowsky and wanted gold hardware,, so this bass came to me like this and after i bought it and played it i sold all my heavy musicman and my 10 lbs 77 jazz and never looked back
