Sadowsky MetroLine 21-Fret Vintage P/J Ash Bass (solid candy apple red metallic high polish)

Roger Sadowsky's goal was always to further improve an already very successful bass design by making a number of detailed improvements. Along with the electronics, which he developed by himself, he succeeded to raise the well-known P/J bass sound to a new level, so today you can speak of a typical Sadowsky tone: Never harsh or shrill sounding, with strong, powerful but never muddy bass, with present, but not too aggressive mids, and a sweet and airy treble range. All features of this modern bass sound can also be found in the 21-Fret Vintage P/J basses of the MetroLine series made exclusively in Germany. The 5-string Vintage P/J Bass features a Solid Candy Apple Red Metallic High Polish finish, active electronics with true bypass, Vintage Tone Control, treble and bass boost, ultralight Sadowsky tuners and the special Sadowsky bridge for quick string release. The sleek undersized J-Style swamp ash body without a pickguard and the maple fingerboard complete the picture. All basses are lightweighted with approximately 8.9 lbs (4.0 kg). A good choice for bass players who are looking for a lightweight solution for the stage in addition to a modern bass sound.
