Sadowsky Blue Label Steels
Hello guys, here's the second tune of the big band recording from the last session, composer and arranger Peter Szendofi as well. It was a bigger challenge for me however got slower tempo, but the extra part at the end required extra concentration too....
I was a pro bass trombone player in my past life and I used to live for those kinds of charts (reminiscent of Bob Mintzer). Very cool and nice playing (bones and bass!).
sadowsky blue steels or dr steels are my faves.
Hi,
Can anyone direct me to where I can buy Sadowsky single coils? I'd like to try a set out, but I can't find them on the Sadowsky or Warwick sites. Thanks.

SADOWSKY SINGLE COIL J/J - Bass Gear Direct
Though I don’t know if the have they 4 string set in stock. Worth a shot. I bought a set of single coils for my 5 string a couple of months ago. You could email them to see if they have a 4 string set in stock. The prices listed are Australian dollars.

I am currently evaluating all the most current pickup designs (as per my specifications). Once I listen and approve them, the path will be paved for retail packaging and sales. Please be patient.

I’ll tie this together - Ron Blair, pictured in this video was the early period Heartbreaker bassist, left the band, and came back later for the last years of the band’s career until Petty passed on. Not a Sadowsky player, and certainly not a Sadowsky in the video.
The late Howie Epstein came on board after Blair and worked with the Heartbreakers until his untimely death. He did play a Sadowsky.

Yikes, what's with that Mickey Mouse bass rig?! Was his real backline in the shop?
(just kidding)
Maybe he was borrowing the opening band’s gear? There might have been a Teamster’s Union strike or a plane landed at the wrong terminal. Stuff happens!
Hope this isn't a repost, but Tanya O'Callaghan talks about her Sadowsky basses at 9:53 here:
Those are my favorite strings for all my basses as well.
Setup for yesterday’s festival gig. “String Section” side of the stage and full view. Pioneer Days festival in Canyonville, Oregon. First gig with my DIY cabinet mounted bass hanger and Shure GLX-D wireless…both worked perfectly.
THAT BASS IS DEFECTIVE! SEND IT BACK! Roger clearly forgot to put the frets in. Wow, how do you tolerate such terrible quality control?? lol
Cute stage! I love wooden stages, perfect sounding, nice resonance... unfortunately so rare nowadays...
