Going to pick up this beauty in 3 hours...
Thank you for this. Coolest thing I've seen all month! Gotta love JPJ for working with "crazy" artists such as Diamanda Galas, Butthole Surfers, this guy, and more.
All I can say I is wow!
Interesting backstory on this beauty.
She was listed in the Classifieds a few months back by the original owner, a gentleman from New Jersey.
He was looking to either sell it or trade for a 4 string. I was going back and forth with him and it turns out I lost her to someone that I knew through social media as he is a Sadowsky and Modulus player like I am.
Every time I saw this bass on his social media I would rib him that she should have been mine.
Lucky me as he must have been a special kind of crazy to give up this beauty.
I've named her Jersey as I lived there for many years before moving to the Sunshine State.
Serendipity some would say...
My first ever sadowsky! My first boutique-like bass. I really love it! I got it from a trade, and i was hesitant at first because im not sure if i will like the color of it (burgandy mist) but when i saw it in person, im blown away. And the quality of it, i can't say enough. This is the best jazz bass ive ever had! I love the color, looks, and quality too. KILLER BASS!

I think that color/finish is beautiful! Awesome acquisition, @ianpablo!
Thanks guys! The preamp and everything is superior. I think i wont use my other basses again lol^^^^
Wow! Beautiful!
Congrats and enjoy!
Confunkalicious has sent word, sideways, your new bass will now and forever be known as...
... Raspberry Sherbet...
... and since its a Sadowsky, it's a sure bet 'Sherbet' is pronounced 'sure-bay'...
... way more classy than any frozen concoction.
That's Spidey's side gig nowadays. Renaming stuff. Just be careful as he asks for a %. Take my word, don't settle for anything over 10 points.
Wasn’t that a Prince song?
“Raspberry Sher-bay”?
You're working it, Jon... working it good.
Is it normal that i get some minimal buzz on the G string, especially on the 3rd fret when i hit the strings really hard?
I set the the bass following the sadowsky bass guide
Or maybe im just expecting that a boutique bass dont buzz at all
