Killerfridge Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 (edited) Hi guys, After many months of searching, I think I have found an instrument that I am in love with - The Sadowsky Metroline basses. The problem that has reared its ugly head is this - what colour to get?! I am torn between these 3 combinations: Rosewood and Olympic White (with tort' pickguard) Maple and Olympic White (with tort' pickguard) Maple and Ash (with black or tort' pickguard) So what are your opinions? Cheers guys. Edited October 2, 2011 by Killerfridge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Musicman20 Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 Olympic White/Rosewood....100%. That maple is very pale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe_bass Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 Maple and OW for me. Agree with Musicman20 about the neck being very pale though. It was the only thing I wasn't perfectly happy with about my Metro. God I miss that bass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ROConnell Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 Rosewood. As said before, maple's a bit pale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Len_derby Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 I like the ash body. If you've got some nice looking timber why cover it with paint Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRBboy Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 Maple/Olympic White for me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darkstrike Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 Maple & white for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EssentialTension Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 I'm never very keen on maple but, as already said, that maple is not attractive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donnyboy Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 I'm a maple neck kinda guy , but I'm liking the rosewood/white - nice contrast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cocco Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 Ash/maple for me, although you've got it now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CHRISDABASS Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 When it comes to Sadowsky i always choose rosewood! The wood they use is Morado, it has a sound that sits somewhere in between maple and true rose wood, the best of both worlds really So i'd go for White - Rosewood or to throw a spanner in the works.................
