AndyTravis Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 (edited) Right. Have figured out that the clicking is the WiFi router (about 3ft from my amp) will do in a different room next time. Edit - this was also straight into the sonic port as the WiFi was doing something to the amp. Realised that while doing this the wife was On a conference call over the internet and kids were watching Disney+ using the internet so no wonder itās noisier... will do something better tomorrowĀ Ā Edited April 1, 2020 by AndyTravis 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acebassmusic Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 I got the Sadowsky "bug" after reading about "the sound" on many forums and then trying a Modern 5 whilst on holiday in the States. I came back and bought a pre-amp from doc40hz on here and put it in my Mayones Jabba. I happily kept it that way until I sold the bass (returned to stock) and got myself a MV5-24. In the past I've had up to 11 basses at once including Warwick, Status, W&T, Schold, Roscoe etc all great but eventually sold on leaving me with my Smith, Ritter and Sadowsky. The Sadowsky has become my go-to bass as I find it easy to get pretty much any sound I want easily and quickly. It's shape and size fits me and is comfortable to play for extended periods. I find the "home practice level" sound to be good but improves once you start pushing some gig air. For me it just seems to sit in the mix and is clear without overpowering. That said, my gassing for other basses has never really stopped and there are a few more basses I'd like to try š I've noticed that Sadowsky's in general are not a common sight and even rarer are Modern 5's coming up for sale......if anyone spots one..... ššš 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TJ Spicer Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 Haha! I am slightly GASing over the MTD Saratoga 5 at bass direct at the minute, and I do only have a 1 5 string PJ policy.

I think itās just quite widely done and I always like to be a little different. I always dig that bit of extra low-mid you get from the P in a PJ, even when theyāre equally balanced. My second 5 is an MTD AG5 USA which has rocketed up in my estimations since lockdown - hence the PJ Saratoga GAS š .

The MTD Saratoga 5 is a seriously much, much better bass in every possible way and it's really essentialĀ that you to stick to your one PJ5 policy.
