Club Sadowsky!!!

I had this happen on my P/J a couple times, what fixed it was to relax the string, letting it unwind by detuning it till it was loose, you may notice the ball end spin a bit, then re-tune the string. If this doesn't fix it, you may have a bad string, replace it. This is of course assuming the setup, nut slot, etc. is correct....best of luck!

Thanks, I will give this a try. It wasn't making this buzzy sound when I first put these on awhile back. Just noticed it recently. :hmm:
 
Yeah, since you started this club!!! Good to have you back!
LOL!!! Yeah I know I know!
Gotta say, I walked in, Jamie had it sitting on the stand, from the second I picked it up and plugged it in and started playing.....like an old pair of shoes.....just "right".
Instantly had the sound that's in my head coming from the bass.

Why the hell do I do this....I ALWAYS end up back at Sadowsky.
ALWAYS.....

Which one was that?

I have pretty intensive rehearsals for Christmas this year at my church (some of you have seen the clips from years past- it's pretty intense. A big church) and have a LOT of gigs through the end of the year. And bookings filling up through April as well.
This bass is gonna see a LOT of gigs the next few months.
Be able to give my Valenti a rest!

That's completely awesome. :)

Dude, my "Past Gear" list in my profile is 100% solid and true.

Yes I've owned a LOT of basses. But always had my trusty Fender as my main bass.
And I pretty much always make my way back to a Sadowsky. I usually only go no longer than about a year tops without one.

It was actually just a ribbing... BS aside tho, yeah, I've seen what you've been through and played some of it. Definitely top shelf, but then again, that comes as no surprise for someone at your skill level, either. :)

hey guys, anyone have any clips on the will lee mid boost differences?
and roughly how much do you guys put the mid boost output at?

I haven't changed mine from factory settings but I may bump the level up a bit. I love it with my overdrive pedal.
 
If I were a greedy bassist this one would be company with my PJ4. Since I'm one of the generous kind I'll let someone else grab this one :D;):
