Sadowsky P Vs Lakland BG Vs Fender P

Recommended Posts

I'm not given to asking these kind of questions but Sadowsky Metros have come onto my radar lately and I was wondering if anyone here has any experience of them? How, if at all they compare with a Lakland Skyline Bob Glaub and whether they really are worth double what a non-export Fender MIJ would cost. They certainly have a lot more kudos (for me anyway) than a USA Fender Deluxe for the money but are they really all that?

The Sadowsky range certainly look superbly finished and have an amazing reputation and many "name users" but I've never played one and never really spoken to anyone who has had one.
What do we all think?

I played a really nice Sadowsky Metro at the Gallery when I visited a while back. It was a truly beautiful piece of work in terms of finish and playability but it sounded a bit on the bright side to me - but in a band mix, that's often a good thing.

I've got serious GAS for a Bob at the moment - silly really cos I've never played one.

I've played a Metro jazz... Fantastic bass, if a lot of money. You can get an idea of the sound if you listen to Tal Wilkenfeld. Lovely sounding bass!
