Sadowsky Goodness...

What really sold me on the Sadowsky was this
quote from Jason Newsted.

"To test each bass, I'd fill up a big tub with super hot water, dump in some salt, and submerge the bass.

Then, I'd take it out of the tub and put it in front of a coil heater for a few minutes. I'd repeat this same process three times with each bass. Finally I'd let it sit on a stand for a couple of days. Usually, the bass corrodes and doesn't play anymore. None of the basses passed that test and kept working except for the Sadowsky." :eek:

For me, that quote just confirms why he doesn't play with Metallica anymore.

I am a Jason fan, but that is just a mean thing to do with such a beautiful bass.

Great bass and a very interesting pick guard. Enjoy!
