Club Sadowsky!!!

[Norwegian Bass]

And here’s a question:how many of you have a Sad hard case? Every one I’ve owned and all the ones I see locally have the portabag. I’ve never actually laid eyes on a case. It’s nice, but I’ll never use it.

I have one. I have 2 Sadowskys, and when I got my 5, I thought since I've already got the bag, why not get the case too? I think it's a decent case; lighter than the G&G cases that I have for my Fenders, and with a more comfy handle. Though, I wish it looked like the new cases they offer now; those are really classy looking IMO. When leaving the house, it's usually with the bass in the bag over my shoulder.

Wow! Killer look.

I think that deserves a third drool just for good measure.

I also requested a slightly wider band for the burst. Came out perfect, imo

 

[AMJBASS]

Killer!!

Very very nice. As my grandma used to say, play it in good health.

Hey I'm game if it's possible to do

A Roasted Maple Neck would have looked bad ass on that bass.
Still a gorgeous instrument though. I love Standards.

FWIW, he/she has my vote...

The re-engineered Blue flatwound bass strings ... are they the same tension as the previous version of the blue flatwounds?

Just want to call this to the attention of anyone who got the new flats... when we put out the new strings, we realized that it would probably help if we made a quick video detailing how we install bass strings in the shop. We also have written out instructions as the video is really fast.

I saw this one at the shop and in person on Erik's bench and it was really sweet.
