[/quote] Cheers Chris. Bought from the Bass Gallery - I took a trip there to try out a couple of Sadowskys Alex had in stock but neither was quite my thing. However he did get in another 2 from the USA a few days later, so I went back and got to unwrap them and try 'em out fresh from the box! This was the winner. EBS_freak - the case is the Sadowsky Ultralight case that the metro's are sold in. Lovely case really, nice interior, quite roomy and very light. J Quote

Apart from the Alleva Coppolo's (which i'll probably never see in the flesh) i only have gas for sadowsky's! everything else ive tried recently has just disappointed me (Sandberg, USA standard and reissue fender, Spector, blah blah blah) Quote

PauBass Posted April 18, 2009 Posted April 18, 2009 (edited) :hyper: Here is my new Sadowsky Metro UV70-MB-Ash: Ummmm... I love this bass, the feel, the sound, the neck is sooooo comfortable and easy to play, the tone across the fretboard is amazing... I'm glad I pulled the trigger and went for it, all I've read about these basses it's true! Edited May 13, 2009 by PauBass Quote
Simon Posted May 16, 2009 Posted May 16, 2009 Here's my Metro, currently for sale as I'd really like to save for a 4 string RS4 in '59 Burst!! Quote

silverfoxnik Posted May 19, 2009 Posted May 19, 2009 This is not a thread for the faint-hearted!! Far too many beautiful basses, just on this page alone!! Very enjoyable though... Quote

Sadowsky number 2 was a metro the same spec as this. Last I heard WaveyDavy had this bass and was gigging it. Bassaussie also had it for a while and it was great.[/quote] I tried this one while bassaussie had it... great bass. would have been mine if I wasnt looking for a 5 stringer.

lawriemacmillan Posted June 7, 2009 Posted June 7, 2009 [quote name='birdy' date='Jan 5 2009, 06:45 PM' post='371170'] Had a look and couldn't see a thread dedicated to SAD's and I have just got my 6th one (cheers Trev) and so thought I would start it with details of my new delivery. Sonic Blue MV5 with VTC soon to be fitted. Hi So is this [i]the [/i]dedicated Sadowsky thread?! If so, I'll add pics of my two NYC 5 strings as soon as I get the chance.
