NEED HELP!! Jerzy drozd sequal V vs, Maruszczyk Sputnik 5a.

Hello TB community. Any help or info will be appreciated.

I play solo bass with influences like Michael Manring, Victor Wooten, Yves Carbonne, Jeff Schmidt, etc. so I play lots of harmonics all over the neck and tapping and chords. I know that Jerzy Drozd has a great name, but unfortunately I am unable to try any. Soo I found this one USED online, but I wonder if the cavity for acoustics will help or not with me and my sound? I will also be using a thinner guage string.
So then I noticed this Maruszczyk bass, and it is beautiful. But I never heard of this bass or reviews. And this one is NEW. I found these instruments on luthieraccessgroup.com. I will try and post the basses on here. Thank you for your help friends.

Price: $3,500 ( N )
From the Maruszczyk workshop in Poland comes the new Sputnik , their top-of-the-line model.

• Mahogany body , 9lbs , matte finish
• Buckeye full top with matching headstock and pickup covers
• Hard Rock Maple neck , 3 piece with runners , 34″ scale ,

• Set Neck design
• Delano 3 band preamp with active / passive option
• Bassculture humbucking pickups with 3 position coil select per pickup

This bass has really impressed me as a fine instrument with no weaknesses. Playability , tone , and appearance all get high marks from me. All components are top shelf , build quality is excellent. I’d put this bass up against a fair number of better known and more expensive basses in a blindfold test. Come on down, I’ll supply the blindfold.

OR have this bass shipped to you for your own blindfold test.
