And you've painted on a rising sun graphic? definitely post some close-ups when you get a chance..
Yeah they've got great necks, only bought it 'cause I wanted the Floyd but I really do like that guitar. The rising sun isn't painted though, it's a stain, which I think looks a lot cooler as you still get all the grains coming through it!0 -

Sadowsky humcancelling and the regular Sadowsky pre with the VTC. The layout is Vol-Blend-VTC-Bass and Treble boost on a concentric knobVERY NICE! :eek:
What pickups & electronics are in it?
I will never understand, however, why they wire the blend so that when you twist it towards the neck you get the bridge pickup and vice versa.
Got a D-Tuner on it too. That's a handy little bugger, it really is.

Nice! That sounds a little odd alright, on my Audere preamp you turn towards the bridge for the bridge pickup and towards the neck for the neck pickup. It's just logical to do it that way. :pac:
Maybe the pot is wired wrong?
I'd love to check out one of those D tuners, might be cool to have one on my Jazz. :cool:
When you drop it down does it shift much off the note?0 -

Nope, that's how Sadowsky have always wired them, it's actually a custom option to have them wired the "normal" way. I'll probably switch it myself though, I'll give it a week or two to see if something I'm missing out on clicks.
There's a small thumbscrew where you can adjust how much it detunes when you engage it. Essentially you tune it to E, for example, engage the D-tuner and use the thumb screw to tune it to D or whatever note you want to detune to and that's it. It's spot on after that. You can see the little lever just above the nut there, flick that and instantly go from standard to dropped tuning accurately.
So it's an accidental feature? Hmm... I'd put it back to normal tbh, it'd just piss me off otherwise.
The D tuner sounds cool. You'll have to bring the bass along to one of these meet-ups if they ever happen. :rolleyes:

If you want one to happen, make one happen, that's the entire point
I don't think the pan is accidental, I recall Roger Sadowsky explaining it on talkbass at one point, can't remember what he said though and I'm too lazy to search for it :P0 -
