LOL.... I meant 2 pick guards
Dude, you quoted the wrong post.
Said someone who has never ever done that in all the years he's been on TalkBass.

NBD Report: Looks like a slow day for Club Sadowsky, so here is a photo journal of Sadowsky NBD and man cave tour. The FedEx guy left a delivery note on the door, but then saw me mowing the backyard and stopped and hand delivered the carton. Very nice of him or I would have had to wait another day.
The shipping folks at Sadowsky do a nice packaging job:
The black pearl satin finish is a winner. Big time:
Nice personalizations from the man himself:
OK, first run through in headphones and backing tracks. Balance is terrific. PJ5 tone is, well, Tully tasty. Maple 'board just snappy enough for these aging ears. The B string? Lots of fundamental and firm. And, oh, to play some fresh Blue Label steels again!
That's my moonwalker photo collection peeking through, here we have the moonwalkers of Apollo 16. I have all 12 moonwalkers signatures, only 4 are still alive:
The new Satin PJ5 takes its place alongside my (used) 2008 NYC Custom PJ4. The ash/RW PJ4 is a little sports car of a bass, don't be fooled by that fancy top:
Finally a family photo with some Fender/Lakland equipment in positions 3, 4, and 5. We also have signatures of the Apollo 14 crew. The wall is authentic Tennessee tobacco barn wood.
Its my man-cave, home theater, bass space, projectapollo collection, and morning coffee hang out:
The bass station practice nook with displays for Apollo 8, 16, and 17:
Thanks to this Club, Roger, and Crew for making this Sadowsky bass thing so cool and musical.

@projectapollo Congrats on the new bass! Enjoy!
Oh yeah, and all the rest of the stuff does not suck either!

Whenever you get a room to yourself, you will feel an overwhelming urge to fill it with many things. My wife granted me a room when we decided to build a new house. It became my music room / home theatre. Actually, that is what spawned my renewed interest in music. Prior to that, I had nowhere to practice without bothering anyone in the old house.

Nothing in this for me. Seller's a good guy; just recently got this Satin, but then decided to grab a high-end Sadowsky NYC.

What a great sounding band. Well done and one of my favorite Journey songs.
Just waiting for the COVID backed ordered carpet and furniture.
Then a future Sadowsky on the wall.

Can you tell if Rogers signature is sealed in with nitro, or just signed over the finished headstock?
