bassjamm Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 Hi all... How goes it? I've recently got myself a Metro RV5 Sadowsky and I'm loving it. It really comes into it's own in a band setting, way more than I'd expected. Does anyone have any experience with how the Nordstrand's and Mike Lull basses fair when compared to the Sadowsky's? I've played a Lull in the past, but I can't really remember what it was like all that much. I'm a fan of the Lull's though and almost got myself one a while back. Any thoughts would be appreciated though. Thanks Jamie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bankai Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 MV5 is my favourite 5 string. It's hard to imagine a better one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's well balanced, lighter than the Lakland and the low action and fast neck make it a joy to play. The SD pickups are custom wound to give Mike Lull the vintage Fender bass tone that he likes. The bass has a huge sound and each note resonates beautifully. I wanted a vintage P bass with 35" scale and 5 strings. Maybe there are better basses out there but I’ve not played them.

dc2009 Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 His thunderbirds look the canine's testicles! On a not entirely unrelated note, do nordstrand make any non fugly pickups? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
