Is that finish "Vintage Tint" or "Natural"?

That'll be an awesome bass, Spalted Maple is crazy wood hey!
 
A new writer eh?!???:eyebrow:
I think I was doing pretty good.
This isn't the thread for this Vic........don't make me go there!;)
Hey, I can't make you do anything. All I do is make a few comments and you do the rest all by yourself. I'm betting it was pretty easy for others to get you in trouble in school. ;) :D

Ok, ok, ok... back on topic... :)

This bass haunts me... :)

Maybe this is a good time to show number 26 and number 27???

Sadowsky number 26 is the best P bass I have ever owned!! She is exceptionally light for a Metro Hybrid P at exactly 8 lbs!!

And her sister a Natural Metro Jazz. This one is serial number 221 and someone added the VTC after the fact so it is a little weird for me because it is the only one I have had like this. The VTC is the bottom knob....This is easily one of the most resonant basses I have ever heard and is every bit as good as any NYC I have owned! I feel very lucky to have her! She has very quickly become my number 1! I had to give her an extensive setup job because she came from an elevated environment but she is perfect now! Definitely reminds me why I love Roger Sadowsky! By the way this one weighs only 8.3 lbs!!!! A Metro P at 8 lbs and a Metro J at 8.3 lbs! How did I get so lucky!

I am a lucky man! These are the 2 that are in my DUB bag and go with me everywhere now. I have most everything I do covered with these! I have a bunch of other stuff but I can smell a sale coming soon....Be on the lookout for some deals.

Peace,

Just in case you Sadowsky fans didn't see this thread, I'm providing a link.

Fantastic playing, and a GREAT comparison of the smooth, modern, soapbar type tone of the Sadowsky Modern versus the grindy, punchy, 'updated vintage' type tone of the Sadowsky J with single coil pickups (in this case, Nordstrand single coils).

REALLY nice IMO! Enjoy:)
