And what a fine piece of ash it is...

Cool!

Anybody else with one piece body Sadowskys?

The tone on that 535 is AWESOME! What is the wood combo?

First time I love the MTD tone that much!

Thanks...it really is a special bass. Ash body, walnut top, maple neck & board. It's a beast in the lows and lower mids, which really supports the typical MTD crispness in the higher frequencies.

Some beautiful Sadowsky pics above me - and I especially love the ones of the man his own self.

Question for you guys, I really want a 3-tone sunburst. Should I get this one painted or just hold out for one to come on the market or what? What would you do?

It's funny, i've got a natural US Lakland JO that i'm contemplating having painted as well. Except I'd like probably vintage blond/transparent white.... something like that.
Pat Wilkins does the finishes on Sadowsky and US Lakland, so I'd think if Pat does the paint, it wouldn't lose any value.
If you can afford it, wait for a Sunburst to "pop up". If you're like me and can't afford to buy another, get it painted.

And if the Burst pops up and you wanna sell this mug, give me a shout.

Man, that is awesome.

I gotta' say, either the Metros are getting better, or the ones I've typically played (and owned and flipped) in the past just weren't quite representative. I gotta' have my fancy NYC, but I'm definitely a believer in the Metros for the more basic/typical configs. Definitely. [Invalid or Expired Link Removed] is just fantastic, and I really got lucky on the weight too.

I still think, no matter how well it's done, a refin will always reduce value.

That said, who cares about a Lakland anyway, right?

OH CMON...

Yeah, its hard enough waiting for one to come to you, let alone being tortured on a daily basis. Anticipation gives me heartburn.

Dude, when you get it, it'll be SOOOO worth it. I guarantee it!

It's been a couple of weeks since I've gotten to contribute anything new...

I got one of Kevin's famous emails today with subject line reading "Your bass is ready!"

I'm pretty psyched because it came out exactly as I hoped - at least visually. I have a funny feeling it will play and sound good too.
