Club Sadowsky!!!

[BartmanPDX]

Ahhh, well, unfortunately, if you want a J body PJ4, you have to go NYC. I actually do prefer the J body myself, but since I also prefer 5 stringers, it's not a problem for me because that's the only body they offer in the 5 string PJ.

Used NYC FTW.

In!

How did I manage to get my lucky number!? I didn't notice that before. Better go out and buy myself another Sadowsky bass now, so that I put this number back in my sig .

Seriously, even though I'm not an owner any more , I do like to visit this thread and read about all the players who are finding their dream instruments and about the great, personal service which Roger still manages to give . If I thought that my playing warranted it, there's no-one I'd rather give $5,000 to for a bass than Mr. Sadowsky !

You deserve to play any instrument that your money can buy...and you don't need to spend $5000 on a Sadowsky.

IIRC You liked black/maple, didn't you?
This one sure is way under $5000:

Echo. And me with a fresh family photo to share.

Gorgeous 5-24, did you just get that?

 

[lowB_2277]

That bass ALWAYS causes a "double take"

 

[zippydog]

Very nice!!

And you got a SMOKING deal on that!!!

I did for sure...and a couple things more:
- A bass with a fun/cool story to tell
- A great buying experience with Kevin

Sorry, but we ALL get that for free.

 

[Chef]

I'll second that.

Dang you, Bart!

I just knew that I shouldn't have baby-sat your PJ.

Oh well, I really am happy with the current clan. No denying that.

 

[ExaltBass]

Hey guys, I forgot to ask for a number. May I have one please?

Hardware swap???

 

[zippydog]

Newbie questions...
1. Do Metro basses have regular strap pegs? If so, is there a type of a straplock peg that fits best?

2. Are Metro neck finishes nitro or poly?

Thanks!

Yep....I see you were the first to notice.

Sorry I can't answer the first question other than either the Dunlop or Shaller seem to work out well. I prefer the Dunlop myself.

As far as question #2, I asked this in Part 16. The Metros do come with the nitro finish on the back of the neck just like the NYC models.

I agree chrome hardware on the UV-5 would look great. Black hardware blends in while chrome stands out. Personal preference of course.

Present, but one bass lighter than before. Playing lots of upright these days and something had to go. That goofy tangerine '86 Standard is still hanging around.
