Club Sadowsky!!!

Well. Jeez.
That's disappointing.
I was maybe gonna order another set for my RV5.

On the plus side; so far MV5 #4168 and I seem to be getting along pretty well so far.
The first job I have for it is tuesday next week, but twiddling at home is encouraging.

Well maybe Vic will have some interesting results with the NJ5S or as pickles and smeet have said the NJ5 work really well, too.
 
Woo Hoo! Never thought I would make THIS ebay score!!! (You may have to scroll down a bit)

Looks like the PJ is getting a little bit of a make over!!!!
I like those lots better than the older set. Was just playing my Metro PJ5 last night and it just kills.

I am hoping the Norstrands are a little more aggressive sounding that the current pickups. I like the bass a lot, but I would love it to have a litter more bite.

I was on the fence about swapping, but the fact that I actually scored some with the Sadowsky covers on them for a lot less than I would have had to pay for new ones sealed the deal for me.

I wish I wasn't such a hack with a soldering iron. I don't mind paying someone, but I hate the idea of leaving my bass somewhere that I am not. I can just imagine the number of someones in the local shop that have the "Look! It's a Sadowsky!" moment. I makes my stomach hurt a little.

Surprisingly, a very small group of people know what a Sadowsky is. I know you are saying though.

Hey maybe since Vic has been supposedly hanging around to snag Chef's new bass:D he might take a moment to slip by and solder up your new pickups.
 
Congratulations Pablo! That is so great to see w/ the PG laid on. It's gonna be a winner !

Hey Blair, after seeing Pablo's body I was expecting that yours were in the same batch...maybe you also get an email from Kevin soon. :hyper:


By the way, don't you guys love the way Roger marks his bodies and necks as if they were cattle? I can almost smell the sweet wood burning under the stamp. :cool:
