    Cool vid. I’ve played Sadowski once back in the early to mid 2000s and really liked it. Good to see you. Interesting bass !

    Hey Max! I just bought one myself, and I absolutely love it. It fits and feels just right. Also, the sounds I get out of it! Love it.

    I'm really happy for you! The earlier editions of this bass were questionable. These newer ones are quite solid. Enjoy!

    Thank you for your unbiased review of the 2023 MetroExpress. I've been wondering whether that hum (on the pre-2023 models) was gone. I'm glad to see it is.

    Hey Earl: Happy Thanksgiving to you. I just ordered a new Sadowsky Metro Express PJ 5 string in Sage Green finish and roasted neck from Sweetwater. It will arrive to my house next Wednesday or Thursday. This is made in China and I paid $1,150.00 out the door. This is my first Sadowsky ever owned. I mainly have Fenders, some Squiers, Ibanez, etc. I will let you know once I get it next week. That $3,000 Sadowsky you bought used is beautiful. I have been to the website and they have beautiful basses, but wow the prices are out of orbit for me lol. I can't swing $8,000, no sir. Take care!

    Thanks Max! I'm looking for a Jazz bass like this. With the 5 strings, Did you notice some issue/improvement in a 34" scale (instead 35) The Michael Kelly that you tested has that 35 scale. What about the definition of the sound of the 5th string? It is a lot of difference in quality compared with the Michael Kelly? I'm thinking in this 2 options. Thanks a lot my friend and have a Merry Christmas 🎉

    Hey Earl! What's shaken' baby??? Been sometime since I've seen your videos. On the hunt for Sadowsky reviews and here you are! Your vid is near the top of the list. Of course as it should be. You're looking fly as always. Grey hair suits you well. Stay away from the hair dye. Hey...Have you been keeping tabs on Laura Lee Ochoa from Khruangbin? You know she's pretty exclusive with the SX jazz bass! Have you thought about interviewing her on your channel? You 2 have something in common...

    Per your suggestion! I checked out Ms Ochoa! She makes quite a statement, with her cool looks! And smooth playing style! You can't take your eyes off her! And yes! I don't hide my age. Grey hair is a "badge" of honor!

    @@maxproud hey Maxproud can you tell if the investment into a real Sadowsky is truly worth it. I'm thinking about it myself as I have a 23 metroexpress, i love the bass but I'm going to swap out All the electronics. Just wondering your thoughts. Thank you.

    Hey Earl! Just wondering if you ever tried Lakland Basses? I am thinking about getting a Lakland 44-64 GZR bass. I was wondering what your thoughts were on that brand of instruments.

    Hey brother, I don't wanna speak for Earl but he has done several video's trying out a few Lakeland's. I picked up a Darryl Jones Lakeland a few years ago based on one of his reviews. Hope this help's and I hope you find exactly what your looking for. Take care

    Earl is there a tone control when it is in passive mode and do the frets have rolled edges? Thanks.

    Not Earl, but I can aswer: 1. The basses don't include a tone control out of the factory, it's only Volume/Balance/Bass/Treble 2. The frets have rolled edges
