bassaddik Posted August 6, 2004 Share Posted August 6, 2004 that's Jeff Rader's bass. He has some gorgeous basses including an amazing Nordstrand and a spalted Maple Sadowsky to die for. That is the first ever Buckeye Sadowsky, and I cannot begin to imagine what it cost ! but it is beautiful !!! Praise ye the LORD. ....praise him with stringed instruments and organs...

wraub Posted August 6, 2004 Share Posted August 6, 2004 Is it possible for a bass to be too pretty? Man the right piece of spalt looks so awesome! Thanks for the GAS... Peace, wraub I'm a lot more like I am now than I was when I got here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dhurstlmt Posted August 7, 2004 Share Posted August 7, 2004 dcr, that is just wrong. To each his own. 57pbass, I would be afraid that the color and design of the bass would take away from my striking good looks. However, if someone were giving it away........ Let your speech be better than silence, or be silent. For those who believe, no explanation is necessary. For those who do not, none will suffice. "Rindase!" "Rendirme?

bassaddik Posted August 7, 2004 Share Posted August 7, 2004 Even if you added a zero to that 350, youd be quite a bit short!!

RHINO_ROB Posted August 7, 2004 Share Posted August 7, 2004 pretty .but i think that i would be afraid to play it or even touch it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would like one. But that Omega cut is too much. It ruins the subtlety of the instrument. Perfect for Mr. Smalls, though. Peace, wraub I'm a lot more like I am now than I was when I got here.

Peace, wraubI'm just trying to imagine the amount of songs you'd have to write that involved switching from 4 to eight strings to justify killing your roadie with that thing PLUS CASE. Better yet, let the keyboard tech do it...he'll think it's a digital piano. "For instance" is not proof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phoney McRing Ring Posted August 9, 2004 Share Posted August 9, 2004 Is there something wrong with me because i actually don'y like this bass? i think i might be ill or something but i just ain't geting any GAS off this at all. Right enough im not saying i would throw it back in their faces if someone gave it to me but from what i've read that does'nt seem that likley Much Love Dave "I am just an instrument cos the lord is playing this funk"-T.M Stevens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dig -- not everyone likes a nice piece o' spalt for a top on a bass. I'm assuming you're writing about the Sadowsky and not the crazy Alembic, which doesn't turn me on. My shoulder hurts from just looking at it! I actually like this one, but usually spalt ain't my cup of tea either. Peace. --SW spreadluv Fanboy? Why, yes! Nordstrand Pickups and Guitars.
