[quote name='Legion' post='798551' date='Apr 7 2010, 11:54 AM']Oh dear - I seem to have done it again
I've gone and bought a Sadowsky NYC. I guess I knew this was the answer to some of my issues but never really expected to summon up the guts to do anything about it. I was seriously impressed by my MV4 Jazz but the Jazz pickup configuration just doesn't do it for me and I'm not keen on the Jazz body shape either. I liked the Metro PJ I had (now back in Psychoandys mitts) but the Jazz pickup location was a bit mellow and the 12" radius fingerboard doesn't agree with me either (also a tad heavier than I'd like). I knew a NYC was the only way to change these niggles...
This beauty has a lovely Birdseye maple fingerboard with a 9" radius and a big fat 60's P neck (which I've come to love after playing my Pino). It's a solid ash body with some nice figuring and a weight about 8lbs. Even more of a bonus is that the J pickup has been fitted nearer the bridge 70's stylee. Fran knows all about this one...but the real question is, will it beat the Pino in a head to head

Now - how the hell am I going to get it to the UK ASAP?...[/quote]The PJ is as u say with me and staying, recorded with it last week and sounds fab, might put some mp's up if anyone is interested. I prefer it to my Sadowsky jazz it just seems to punch thru better esp when just using the p pup. Loving the NYC btw congrats. Andy
