Club Sadowsky!!!

Availability is no problem in Germany through Thomann. I don't know the shipping rates to the USA, though.

Edit: Neat, they list prices for US customers in $ excluding VAT: https://www.thomannmusic.com/cat_GK...e-first=0&filter=true&manufacturer[]=Sadowsky

i always keep a back stock of strings i use a lot, so i'm still in pretty good shape on blues at least for now... hoping the distro stuff gets resolved and i can get more at the previously typical price when i need them, but again, i have other good options if not, so i'm not worried about it either way.

If anyone is extremely bored today and happens to be good at photoshop, I’d love to see what this would look like with a maple neck bound and blocked (abalone or the like) and a white pearloid pickguard with soapbars. 4 string which is likely impossible and not necessary for just the visual anyway.

Labella makes them in NY so buying them from Germany and Holland seems silly really. Sweetwater should carry them for crying outloud.

Has anyone here tried to polish out the swirls on an older pg ?

what, and polish out all the charm? no way!

I was told relic'ing a PG with old plastic was the new hotness.

Being somewhat newer to "the club" -I've only ever procured through dealers on Reverb. What is the "previously typical price?" -Because what I paid is less than the brand I use on my other basses, so it didn't pause me...

 

[Joeykun]

What’s a pickguard? I have Standards!

 

[roogbass]

where did you order them from, and how much did you pay per set?

€102 for 3 sets.

€102 for 3 sets.

Additional info for you 'mericans: Europeans include taxes in their prices most times.

Hopefully one day I'll be lucky enough to live in a state that doesn't have sales taxes...

Yeah, I've paid upper end of that, but I'm OK with it.
