As one Does....Wow! Both gorgeous. The Carmel burst with gold,
maple FB, and parchment is very very sexy! Is it Ash?

Not much to add here. Great review. Welcome to the family Jim.

One thing -- the Alder body IS chambered under the quilted top. I
believe they are chambering all of the alder bodies these days. Nice to
get such a deep full, bottomy sound out of such a light bass, huh??

Hi Chad-

Thanks so much for reading it, but also for pointing the way! I think
you are right about the alder, I recall having read it on the old
Sadowsky webpages.

Yes....the sound. Now I want a club rig that can do it justice!
I'm gassing for a big Crest and a demeter and a bergie and and and...

Oh well. I must admit I am really happy right now and feel very
fortunate!!!

Yeah it's ash and against the typical norm my morado/alder Metro is brighter but it is a GREAT bass also. The fingerstyle sound on the NYC just kills!

Thanks!!

YES...I need a 5 and a fretless....damn, now I AM being bad!

I love the look of your bass, as I am a P-bass lover. I'll bet that soap
bar sounds great, and that your bass can do a lot of very rich, quiet,
and punchy tones. How are you liking it?

I LOVE my P-Bass, it's Thuper, thanks for asthking!

The soapbar was something I was a little concerned about, but I really love it. It can be slightly modern aggressive growl and bark, but with the VTC, it can be smoothed out very nicely.

It is very resonant and has a very porous (to borrow your words) Madagascar rosewood FB.

I too want (no, I NEED) a 5 string Jazz and a fretless! LOL!

Congrats. Looks like another sweet and stunning Sadowsky. Great config!

 

[BigMikeW]

Keep me in mind when that P/J needs a new home!!!

NEVA!
