Sadowsky MetroLine 21-Fret Vintage J/J Bass, Swamp Ash Body, Tigerstripe Ebony Fingerboard, 4-String, Fretless - Nirvana Black Transparent Satin
Roger Sadowsky has always aimed to improve an already successful bass design by making a number of detailed and vital changes. By engineering and creating his own electronics, Roger succeeded in improving the sound of a J/J bass with that special Sadowsky tone: Never harsh or shrill sounding. Bass that is strong and powerful but never muddy. Mids that are present but not too aggressive and a treble range that is sweet and airy. This 4-string fretless bass features a sleek, undersized J-Style body made of chambered American Swamp Ash with a Nirvana Black Transparent Satin finish. The neck is made of American Maple and features a Tigerstripe Ebony fingerboard. Special features of this bass include Sadowsky J-Style pickups, active electronics with true bypass, Vintage Tone Control, treble and bass boost. The hardware includes light open gear Sadowsky tuners and a Sadowsky Quick String Release Bridge. Made exclusively in Germany, a Sadowsky MetroLine 21-Fret Vintage J/J bass will never weigh more than 8.9 lbs (4.0 kg). It’s a great choice for players who want a lightweight bass that offers a modern bass sound.
