Club Sadowsky!!!

I saved the Preowned page. I'll make sure to drop by there occasionally.

@MAJOR METAL have you seen the preowned page on the site? I think you should!!!

HAHAHA, that's actually one of my basses I have on consignment. Roger is building me a Vintage 24fret 5 string with 2 Nordstrand Big SplitMans that will be ready in April. With the addition of this J 5 I realized I would rather expand my Sadowsky sonic spectrum by having different pickups in each Sadowsky.

Thanks! I'm going to be pairing it with these cabinets: Aguilar's DB 410 & DB 115, both in Monster Green!

Anyone else rocking one of these?

Oh my word is it! It was lust at first sight when I saw it online. I had been wanting a vintage 5 in that color for a long time.

It’s practical too. Everyone should have a green bass in case you will have a St Patrick’s Day gig. At least that’s what I tell myself.

I didn’t know such a thing existed! I thought I only had 2 choices.

@Sadowsky Roger, would a Vintage 5-24 be permitted for a Satin Series order?

So question fellas,ok fellas question, I’d like a bit more punch coming out of my tone. I think My sound lacks punch and I was considering changing my pups can anyone recommend pups which have a good punchy tone. I have a one of the Tokyo made models which if I’m correct is the current Metro model. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I doubt very much that replacing Sadowsky pickups with something else would improve your tone or add punch. Play with the EQ. Maybe think about a compressor in your audio chain.

A good set of single coils might do the trick!

I use a Darkglass Compressor, I’m using a Sans Amp paradriver but on very low settings just to give it a bit of punch. It seems like I’m getting the tone to break up early and it distorts fairly easy.

Is there any which you would recommend? Which from your knowledge is a good way to go ?
