*sigh*
Too much GAS, too little money...
I played one of these last night waiting for a setup to get finished on an ATK I was buying, and I almost... almost...
ALMOST...
decided not to buy the ATK (but I did anyway)
Invalid Link Removed
I think I'm going back next month for it, though.

Those are a lot like mine...
I own two NYC Sadowsky basses... and the Metros are really nice... either one would be an excellent addition to your collection!
First Lakland 55 I've seen with a pickguard and it makes it look a hell of a lot better!!
I finally got around to trying a Sadowsky Metro a couple weeks ago.
Big mistake.
I found out for myself why they are so popular around here. That bass was so easy to play and I loved the tones. I emailed Sadowksy the next day and they just happened to have the exact model I wanted on order due to arrive in November. Put the deposit down and now the waiting game starts. Help.

Most excellent.
The only thing I'd want to change different would be to move the bridge pickup closer to the bridge and put in a lipstick pickup in the neck position. Get rid of those knobs and just have on/off switches tucked below the bridge and a neon yellow paint job.
I've been spending waaaay too much on basses lately. 
But, still, I'm thinking a Highway One P-bass would be nice. Sometime, when I have a bit of time to get some money together, I'm hoping for a Rickenbacker. Also, I'm sort of toying with the idea of getting in touch with Chris Stambaugh about an idea, maybe having a custom bass built. That'll be a bit in the future, though...I want to have the money to do it right, and really figure out the woods and options I want.
But for my next buy, probably the "honey blonde" Highway One P-Bass: Invalid Link Removed
And I'm thinking I'll buy a new pickguard, one of these three (haven't decided yet):

That bass would be a LeCompte.
