Club Sadowsky!!!

Hey David, I knew you were going down to Brooklyn but I didn't realize you were considering a Modern 5.

I picked up a R5-24 a few weeks ago. It is definitely a keeper. It sounds great thru a certain Epifani. :ninja:

Beautiful bass you have there (even though it's not pink. :smug:) I hope you enjoy it.

That bass deserve HUNDREDS of big pics posted on this thread. Very cool. Normally, I don't like fancy tops (even though I have one:D) but Moderns were made for Spalts, Birdseyes and Quilts.
 
Did someone say "spalted"...:ninja:

I just bought this one to hold me over while my Modern is being built. I'm not usually a fan of spalted tops at all - but this one is absolutely ridiculous. It just spoke to me. I can't wait to take some nice photos of it.

I'm a fan of certain spalts. Your bass certainly is a nice one. What are the specs on your upcoming Modern?

Very nice! What's the body wood? If it's ash, it's essentially identical to mine. :)

Well, when you decide to maybe think of trading that for a certain ash/maple Vintage 5, I may know where one is!;)
 
So I was watching the Gossip Girl season 1 finale last night, and in the third from last shot on Rufus's tourbus the bass player is clearly playing a Sadowsky.

First behind Obama, now in Gossip Girl. Sadowsky in pop culture.

LOL,
Finally a cutting proof that some of us Sadowsky owners are actually playing their instruments
:D:bassist::D
 
I am new to the Sadowsky family but I am hooked. These basses are amazing. Here's a couple of pics of mine.

Here is my brand new Sadowsky Modern 5. I cannot begin to tell you how happy I am to own this. The B string on this thing sounds better than both my Spector NS5 and Modulus Q5. And it's 34" scale. Thanks to all who gave me advice on one of my previous posts.

Can I join the club now.:)

Check it out.

You are no longer welcome in this club.

Yes he is.
I know Kristen Bell's family, he's welcome indeed!
