Amazing player, a lefty, made his name with the minimalist jazz trio Back Door back in the 70s. Plays a Precision in a unique style, quite guitar like. Well worth seeking out. The self titled Back Door debut album is great and on Spotify etc. Edited August 26 by pineweasel 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pineweasel Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 I’ve just read that online retailer Left for Dead is closing down. They have a couple of Sandbergs left with decent price reductions: https://www.leftfordead.rocks/leftybassguitars 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The back of body shot looks like paint is still flaking from being rubbed with sandpaper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeftyJ Posted November 27 Share Posted November 27 Thomann have a killer Cyberweek deal on the Sadowsky Metroexpress Hybrid 5 fretless. I ordered mine on Monday and received it today: Sadowsky MetroExpress 21-5 Hyb BK FL LH – Thomann United Kingdom Thomann are still clearing their stock of the first series, as the new and improved series has been available for a while now. The one I got has a serial number dating it back to 2021. Not sure yet if this one has had all the initial QC issues fixed or if it's from before that, I'm still at work and have yet to plug it in. Issues were mostly electronics-related (noisy preamp, poor string-to-string output balance due to P pickup having two coils below the A-string - even if only one has pole pieces). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That one has been up before with a long story about the incredible luthier blah blah... Still seems like something that you could easily knock together yourself. There's no way I'd buy something like that blind, and certainly not at that price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
