hitsville4060 Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 Hi Nice bass! The bass has a switch on your photos, that's not on the original photo on sadowsky.com -- what's that? Regards, Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apothem Posted July 9, 2014 Author Share Posted July 9, 2014 (edited) Well spotted, I completely forgot about that! I apologise, did not mean to mislead anyone. This was the personal bass of a Sadowsky Metro dealer and he did the mod as a matter of preference (likely not to have to touch the pot and change its setting/position when playing live), so now there's the mini toggle switch instead of pull-push. I can confirm that the minitoggle works perfectly and feels very sturdy, that the preamp (standard Sadowsky 2-eq stacked) is very powerful (a little does a lot!!) and that the VTC works correctly in both active and passive mode as you would expect.
