Yeah i read it in an interview, he doesn't like to talk about it. Probably cos it's a massive embarrassing con, but there you go!

More a case of he really didn't want to even [i]talk[/i] about selling me something unless I showed him the money first.....as I've said before he was like a cross between Gimli from LOTR and a Cave Troll, with an attitude to match.

Have you noticed that he plays a 6 string and you can't actually get his signature in a six string...?

There is a statement on Alleva Coppolos website that all endorsers pay full price for their instruments and I am pretty sure that is the same policy that Sadowsky have also.

Interestingly with Sadowsky's if you buy a certain number (I think its 9) you get a free bass but that applies whether you are famous or not.

You reckon? Sadowsky approached Tal offering endorsement... you reckon she paid full value for her [s]Warmoth[/s] Sadowsky?

hiho,I suppose that whenever we change tuners,pups,scratplates,bridges and a whole list of other things we create our own signature model so when do the manufacturers give us credit with our far thinking and our unique sound.
