I just got home from a Tower of Power cover band rehearsal and tonight I took my Sadowsky Modern 5 for the first time...
So far I've taken 4 really great basses that I own, but the Sadowsky just absolutely killed it. The band even thought I had a completely different rig, but nope, still the same amp and cabs. The bass was warm, punchy and just the right level of mids and brightness.
Rocco's basslines are seriously tough on your right hand, but the pickups are in just the right spot for my playing technique and acted as a "ramp" the whole time. I seriously fall in love with this bass everytime I take it out to play.
