While we are doing the Sunburst thing....
Sunburst is good, you all know it's the best finish of them all. Else you're in denial.
The one is the middle is sweet too!
Thanks I can’t say enough about that bass. I was always a fan of solid color basses. Until I saw that Sadowsky. Now all I look at are Sunburst basses first...I’m considering selling two of my other basses to be able to acquire another Sadowsky. But the three you have are seriously ON POINT!!!
That's how I wound up with 6 sadowsky basses I had all sorts of basses after i got my first one i started selling them and buying more sadowskys .these 3 are my keepers I'm selling the other 3 though. They are such phenomenal basses
I love Roger's '59 finishes and was leaning that way, but there's something about trans black over flame that just drew me in.

Don't sell that one on the right short though...
I’m at the end of some fly dates where I took my new-to-me older 5-21 onboard and the TSA agents barely even acknowledged the bass with the battery in it at all...they were much more interested in the 15 pounds of Franklin BBQ brisket that I also took onboard!
I think it really has more to do with how confusing and potentially threatening a pedalboard would look like under an x-ray with all of those wires, circuit boards and cables running around; I was recently at the end of one leg of a tour and flying home with my flyboard and TSA asked me to take the pedals off for examination. I told them that I’d be happy to but since they were all bolted to the board it would take some time (Temple board and plates), to which they declined and just took a look at the boards itself before waving me through.
Yes and with a mint guard. Don't see it often, but I love the combination.

So I can send you an address for some of that brisket and....
Thanks for the response! I will go through my pedals and make sure there isn't a random 9-volt in there that I'll have to do surgery to remove. Sounds like my Metro may be fine.

Haha, man that brisket was kinda pricey! I just took it out to some friends, and to be honest I get so much free BBQ as comped meals while playing the Texas Country circuit that I NEVER buy it for myself...I’m far more likely to go get a pokè bowl or Greek food than brisket.
I wouldn’t worry at all about your bass, and if taking the 9-volt out of your pedals makes you feel better then definitely do it. I just doubt that TSA will actually hold you up for more than a few minutes over a battery, and if they do it shouldn’t be hard for them to provide a Phillip’s head screwdriver to remove said battery.
