Club Sadowsky!!!

The pics really don't do the finish justice - the Oahu Blue Burst has a beautiful aqua color in the middle that I can't get to show up in pics. Really looks like the ocean with the figured maple top...also can't believe how light it is.

I got one that has the same finish yesterday, but mine has a parchment guard. Other than that they look very similar. Congrats on a very nice bass!

metallic sage green and maple neck

That is a really great looking color combination!

 

[Fran Diaz]

That would feel fitting, thanks.

I hope you like number five...you're #555. Welcome to the club.

That's the special thing about Sadowsky basses. You only need one. Maybe two...

Yes, 2 is the absolute max. Absolutely.

Tell me that's true?
Please.

Hmmm, let’s see. MV4 with HC, Teppei model with single coils, HPJ, Verdine White, Modern Edge 4. That will just about cover it. Oh, and an NYC someday. So, six?

 

[Holdsg]

if it's two Verdine's, the answer is yes (for moi, a 4 and 5)

What do you all think of pickguards on Modern's? I'm considering adding one to tighten up the gap between the body and the strings. I don't love the look though... If anything, I'm guessing I would do clear.

 

[puff father]

That is a really great looking color combination!

I agree!

 

[kobass]

@Joelc73 Yes-definitely clear IMHO.

 

[Holdsg]

do you play between neck pup and neck end?
or in-between pups?
if the latter, maybe a ramp?
just random thoughts

Thanks. I play mostly on top of the neck pickup. The challenge I have with the Modern is that there's too much space between the body and strings for slapping. It's very awkward if you're used to Fender style basses.

Weird that the bass in the notice is a Masterbuilt and not a Metro.

 

[MAJOR METAL]

Anyone here have plans to buy the ME or German made Sadowskys once they are available? I'll be looking at a Masterbuilt.

Talk about damning it with faint praise... the best thing they could think of to say about it was that it is "playable"? Sheesh.

That's like saying Baby Yoda is "cute."

My second entry for club Sadowsky. An 8 pound 5 string its hard to believe and the satin finish is so smooth. I guess I thought the finish would have a chalky feel. So far I love it. Its my first white bass I was never to big on the white color in the past but I really like the look with the maple board. So far I am hitting home runs with Sadowsky. The tone on both of the basses is just killer. It must be the pre-amp.
