The one that will be for sale (a good 9 year run)
    And the one that I'll likely never sell

The Zon fretted and Sadowsky are very different sounding and playing basses, but I don't like to have a ton of instruments around. For the past 9 years I've played the fretless about 95% of the time and with the guys I'm playing with lately I need a different vibe. Plus if I sell the Zon I can buy another Sadowsky like this:

I don't know, Johnny Gill was alright but Ralph Tresvant was more the Bass IIRC.

Did they give you a deal since the neck pickup was snapped in half?

I've ended up with an Ibanez with Bartolini pickups; the guy says someone will come along who appreciates them (still waiting).

This is my first bass with a P-style pickup. I thought I'd be panning more towards the bridge as I'm more familiar with J-styles but actually ended up going the other way. It nails the P-bass sound and the mix is it's own thing. Great bass to slap. Ended playing almost 4 hours last night. My shoulder is sore...I should have sat down more. |
