Club Sadowsky!!!

[KaseOfBass]

In the unlikely event that someone here has one laying around, I'm looking for an 18mm spacing Sadowsky 5-string bridge in chrome (or I'd make black work if you have one of those). I've got a NYC Will Lee 5 that I want to swap out for 18mm bridge spacing and they're currently out of stock at the shop per my conversation with Carl today. From what Carl said, they're likely about a month out, so I thought I'd check here, though I realize it's unlikely, to see if anyone had one they'd like to part with.

I am delighted to have two TYOs and two MIJ Metros. Hoping one day to acquire an NYC or two. Spoiled rotten for lesser basses!

I have an older NYC j5 with no options at all that kills . My newer NYC is a fancy 24f j5 that also kills. My ME is my only non nyc.

Awesome! Every Sadowsky NYC instrument built this year will receive the 40th Anniversary logo!

Well this will be a welcome surprise on the NYC 5-24 I ordered Monday. Should show up around mid summer.

In a moment of weakness, half asleep at 2am this morning I bought this NYC Vintage PJ 4-21, I just couldn’t resist. It’s like sleep walking.

Someone needs to start a Sadowsky buyer support group funded by rich benefactors to help us keep our GAS under control.

I would still love to see the 40th Anniversary bass Sadowsky was teasing on IG a while back, if it exists.

I wonder if my NYC 4-20 Jazz bass I ordered last year counts, as it’s wrapping up around May... probably not, but it would be a nice surprise!

Quite. Ordered this from Ikebe last night. Already gone from their website, these pics of the same bass are from a Fleabay “seller.” Modern Edge in Lexus pearl white, roasted neck, ebony board, 1-ply black PG. GAS for days!! Now to sell a couple to keep the War Department happy.

I'm sure there's a thread somewhere regarding late night bass purchases with an adult beverage in hand. I can think of maybe one. Or two... But no more than five.

Probably.

Very slick with the black headstock...

Guilty, your honor. But in my defense, the bass was asking for it. It needed buying.

Ha! In my case I plead insanity. The voices in my head told me to do it. The P, J and Modern voicing of course...

Ah, you mean the limited edition Sadowsky Thumb?

Hence you're a bonafide charitable person. It's the only way to be.

Family photos as threatened!

Red is currently strung with Cobalt flats. Great string to string balance, I like 'em, but prefer the zazz of TIs. I also need to try the Sadowsky blue flats.

Took this one out for a spin today at Zeppelin band practice. Sounded so good. Everyone in the band says this is my JPJ bass. Such an articulate Bass when you need it to be.
