Its surprisingly light actually may be down to overall thickness and downsized body shape

Its great to here such varied opinions! I will post more pics when i get chance

Here's a pic of one of the first basses my company (Alpher Instruments) are currently building! [attachment=109114:bassphoto.JPG] Just wanted to know what all you good people thought of it Specs are: Wenge Body Spalted maple top American black wood veneer Quarter sawn maple neck ebony board All black hipshot hardware (ultra lites) Sadowsky pickups and preamp All feedback welcome Cheers

Excellent!! Glad it worked for you

Hey Si Please don't be afraid of truss rods! They are very simple things and are difficult to get wrong really It sounds like all it needs is a quarter turn anti clockwise. (towards you as you sit with the bass on your knee in the playing position) luckily EBMM make it even easier by using the spoke wheel adjustment Give it a go

[quote name='eude' timestamp='1335884110' post='1637513'] Incredibly, bad quick and dirty photoshoppery... [attachment=106654:not_as_bad.jpg] This is a bit nicer, no?... Eude [/quote] This looks far better! still rather poor though! No idea who's in charge at Fender these days!!

Have a word with Nino Valenti! http://www.valentibasses.com/index.html great basses at equally great prices!

Hey Who would you guys suggest for a respray job? the guy i normally use isn't available and i don't have the facilities to do this in my workshop at the moment. any suggestions would be great cheers

Ordered my Super 12T a few days ago!! so excited!!

Stox, i agree with you on the quality of Metro's! i cant fault mine and would buy another tomorrow given half the chance! Im surprised at the details being brought up here! Type of plastic used for the back plate?? who cares? who ever see's this part when you're playing anyway?

I've no idea why this debate keeps coming up!? If ya dont like something dont buy it / eat it / use it / moan about how its not worth the money etc Sadowsky's tick all the boxes for me and that is why im prepared to spend the extra cash! Im more than happy with my Metro PJ5
