Just purchased Sadowsky NYC RV4 Satin. SO EXCITED! Its getting shipped for delivery on Saturday or Monday. Sneak preview in my avatar. Also some photos from the store I bought it from. More pictures to come when I get it.
I played that same bass last week in Nashville. Super nice, congrats
That's where I got it from. You played my bass.How was it?
Might not be the correct forum or thread but what strings would you recommend I put on this beauty? I prefer warmer nickel sounds.
Thanks for any advice.

The Sadowsky Blue Label nickels sound great.
They're very nice strings, but really not all that warm sounding imo.
Maybe at first but they break in fast for me and are plenty warm for my setup.
Yeah, I like them, too. Just saying. For warm sounding strings, I'd maybe try sunbeams. It all depends, of course.
How do you typically like your tension? For lower tension go Blue Label, for higher tension go Black Label. I like my strings to "fight" a little bit and I like a warmer sound, I run Black Label Nickels on mine. A bit zingy out of the pack but they do settle in nicely.Might not be the correct forum or thread but what strings would you recommend I put on this beauty? I prefer warmer nickel sounds.

Dunlop super bright nickels, despite their name, are super warm and growly and are perfect on a Sadowsky 5. Better B string than DRs.
I like my tension a bit lower. I like Nickels so I'll try Blue Label. Thank you for your advice.
