"Honey, please don't max out the bass on the preamp. You are scaring the neighbors."
See what being a doctor will get you.

A few questions though.....what are the odds of seeing a better shot of that G string????
And how do you tune the E string????
OH yeah.....I have dibs on that bass!!!

No fair! I'm a doctor and the equipment that I use is not nearly as huge as that. Mine is more like an Acoustic Image combo.
Well, I don't have my camera (the wife has it on a trip), but #5039 arrived today.

The bass is beautiful, and it sounds incredible.
Let me say something about the setup as well. This bass shipped cross-country, yet it's got the best setup of any bass that I have ever played. Absolutely killer.
Excuse me while I go play ...

Congrats on an amazing bass....That top and fingerboard are amazing up close...
At first I was a little torn between the Parch guard...But it lay's out very well with the rest of the bass. {the rest of you will see it when He takes some pics}.
Thanks, I'm glad you like the set-up.
Rob
Oh, I like that idea...wife goes on a trip, you order a Sadowsky. Cool!
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
+1 on Rob's (dragonbass) setups. They are second to none!
Cheers,
Kevin

Ha ... I should order a bass every time she goes on a trip
Coincidence only ... believe me, my timing isn't nearly that good ...

Fran,
Not that you need to do it now, but I/we use Linseed oil...and you can use 0000 steel wool to lightly clean the board.
Rob
OK, thanks for the info Rob. One more question for when I need to do it:
how should I use the steel wool? parrallel to the strings? perpendicular?
TIA
I'll let Rob correct me if I'm wrong, but IMHO, ALWAYS go with the grain in the wood (in other words, parallel.) Always.
