I also agree, not that I prefer Oklahoma over Texas (eventhough I live in TX now). Roger doesn't have any purple and gold (LSU) basses yet...

sorry for that poor iphone pic)))
Nice basses. Would love to see a shot of the middle VJ5 on it's own.
The first Sadowsky I actually played in my life was a NYC Jazz that was purple. I don't think the hardware was gold though
Believe it or not, it was hanging used in a GC
Here's more orange for you to enjoyI'm playing for a University of Texas / Oklahoma football party tomorrow night, so the UT guys are gonna dig the bass color eventhough it's Candy Apple Orange instead of Burnt Orange.
Sweet basses!!!!!
Thanks. They are super basses. I still "need" 2 more: an ash/maple and a fretless. I'm trying to pace myself though
Here's a purple one without gold hardware. I think I'll stick with the candy apple orange.

I tried like hell to get that bass. With a daughter named Violet, what else was I to do? Last I heard, that bass is in Europe somewhere.
Man, this is strange. I guess what goes around comes around, and the circle of life and all that crap.
I just completed a 3-way deal to allow a fellow TB'er to exchange Sadowskys to one that fits him better, which also involves a new purchase for Sadowsky, and me not having to wait for one to be built, and even save a couple shekels. Further, this bass is precisely, in every minute detail, what I want, including the builder I was hoping to get. How strange is that?

How does this happen????
Well, regardless, I'm very happy about it.

Very nice, Vic!
Oh, and by the way, you are not to be allowed in my house ever again, unless you are carrying that bass with you!

Wow! The planets must be aligned. Time to pick up a lottery ticket!
Oh yeah, nice score! Congrats, Vic!
Thanks. You wanna' hear something REALLY freaky? I came THIS CLOSE to buying that exact bass when it was still on the site this past summer. I just didn't have the money at the time, and it was killing me.
Very nice, Vic!

You let Vic in your house??
Nice bass Vic!

Cool bass. I played it over the summer at the shop the day I ordered my Vintage 5. Does it still have the HC's in it?
JC
Mine is spec'd exactly like this. Can't wait. I spoke to Kevin today. My 245 should be up in December and my V5 in January.
